The first e-reader in the world to utilize e-Ink Triton, to give you a true full color reading experience as received an update. The Jetbook Color has finally got WIFI internet access by flipping the switch on the side of the panel. There is a new feature to take advantage of the newly found internet access, such as your internet library. This will store all purchases that you make on the internet and via other bookstores. Speaking of books, there i s a new quick navigation feature to the list of books you recently viewed with the ability to open any of them.
One of the best upgrades was the ability to switch the orientation from landscape or portrait mode. This was one of our gripes from the very beginning and its quite excellent to see it has been addressed.
Other notable features include a new screensaver when the device is in standby mode. This will give you the options to upload your own images to render in color or traditional e-ink.
You can download the new firmware update HERE and it includes instructions on how to load in the patch, if you have never done it before.
