Subject: A new software release is available for your iLiad!
Dear iLiad User,
Herewith we would like to inform you that a new software release is available to download from the iRex Delivery Service (iDS).
What’s new in the software release 2.12
This software release 2.12 is part of an ongoing process to extend the functionalities of the iLiad and to improve the overall performance to ensure an even better electronic reading experience for our customers. We recommend that all users upgrade to this latest version.
Support Tables in Mobipocket Documents
Converted Mobipocket documents with tables can now rendered correctly. However, there is currently no solution to navigate a table that is wider than the screen.
Support Mobipocket folder on MMC, CF and USB
It is now possible to create a ‘books\Mobipocket folder on MMC, CF, or USB memory. This will work the same as the Mobipocket folder located in the internal memory. Dictionaries will work from any of these locations.
Do not automatically connect to open WiFi Network
A wireless connection preferences option has been added to the settings menu. An automatic connection can now be disabled in the iLiad settings menu. This will stop the device from automatically using any unsecured WiFi networks to connect to iDS.
Bug Fixes
– CDMA dialup profile: The CDMA dialup profile can now support an empty username and/or password.
– Disallow USB connection when not in Content Lister: To prevent problems with sporadic disk corruption, the USB connection now only works when the system is in the Content Lister view.
– MMC contents not visible after USB connection
– Several small stability improvements
