I had just under 50% in a set of batteries in my Bookport. When updating to the latest beta I forgot to replace them, so the unit announced: "Battery low. Update abort." So, I replaced the batteries to a brand-new set and it seemed to automatically carry out the rest of the update, then returned me to idle mode. Now here's the weird part: whenever I put back in those batteries and press d+f, it announces "Battery level: 50%", so it seems to me that these batteries should be in good, working condition. However, whenever the unit wakes up with these batteries in place it says: "Battery low, update abort" again, as if it hadn't completed the update process yet. And as I move through, it keeps repeating "Announcements missing". When I put back in the brand-new batteries it says "Bookport ready" and acts as normal. But when I place the 50% ones back in, it's the same thing: "Battery low, update abort"..."Announcements missing." This is very worrying. Any help is appreciated. P.s. My old batteries could play audio files and read books, but any other prompt that it would usually say itself is given with "Announcements missing". ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
