 6:40 AM *  

There are a number of small,
inexpensive, low-powered e-reader or e-paper devices that have promise as
ebook readers with one minor problem: the firmware they ship with does not
realize their full potential. To solve that problem, the CrossPoint Reader
project looks to
provide replacement firmware that offers necessary features, better performance,
and a more pleasant reading experience. On August�7, the project released
version
1.5.0, which opens large EPUBs more quickly, provides
offline dictionary lookups, and has reworked settings for changing layout and
font options. The release also improves support for right-to-left text as well
as Chinese, Japanese, and
Korean (CJK) text rendering.
