Hi Pete and list:

Your suggestion makes sense. That would be handy from an operational perspective.

Cheers,
Dave

Subject: [bookport] Suggestion for Settings Menu Items


One frustration I've been having for along time is quickly and easily
re-setting some items in the settings menu after changing batteries and/or
needing to reboot.

Here are two specific modifications which I would like to see:

1. In the sleep timer settings, the default is now 30 minutes.  The
user needs to tap the "4" key many times in order to re-set this option to
zero minutes.  I think it would be nice if the "4" and "6" keys could be
used so that if they were held down for one beep the sleep timer setting
would be automatically moved to the smallest and greatest values
respectively.  This would be similar to the operation of the "d" and "f"
keys when in reading mode and changing the volume setting.

2. Similarly, the default setting for "sensitivity" is 15.  I usually
like to place this at it's minimum value of 5.  Again, it would be nice if
the "4" and "6" keys could be used so that, if they were held down for one
beep, one is quickly moved to the end ranges of the sensitivity setting.
