[Reader-users] More Reader Quirks and Observations

[tribble]

PS: What I like about the mobile reader is the fact that I have it with me 
all the time and so don't need to lug around a large case, or take stuff 
home and stick it under a stand.  Consequently I am getting a lot more use 
out of it than I ever did the classic.  It is wonderful!

Subject: [Reader-users] More Reader Quirks and Observations


I've noticed some other quirks and possible bugs with the reader.

1. When pressing 1 for help, pressing the star key cancels help. The 
instructions say to press the help key again to exit help but make no 
mention of the star key. Personally, I think star should give help text like 
the others.

2. While processing an image, if a call is received, an error 21 is envoked 
and spoken to me during the call. I believe this may have been reported 
before.

3. Also while processing, sometimes the messages similar to "text cut off on 
right" are repeated multiple times.

4. Since the viewfinder is disabled during reading, pressing the number 3 
once acts as a cancel button, but no feedback is given. If a user presses 3 
twice, the viewfinder is turned on and text is lost. I would recommend the 
viewfinder key simply be totally disabled as advertised as to not effect 
reading.

5. Sometimes when processing, a double beep is heard, which seems to happen 
if two processes are happening simultaneously, probably because the first 
one wasn't properly canceled.

Thanks as always for a great product.
