<html> <head> <style></style> </head> <body class='hmmessage'> Hi All... I haven't given up on os180py yet. I am doing the downloads again to a different usb stick.  It is going better. No stalls yet, just the seventh blink on the drive is always a bit longer than the rest. Strange. Saturday I need to show someone via Skype how to use the XO as a book reader.  So far no luck with it.  I have tried both the Read Activity and the Read E Texts Activity and can't seem to get either to work well.  Are there any really good instructions anywhere for these?  I have been telling folks everywhere how the XO makes a great book reader, but haven't tried it in ages!  Am I lying to them? My Journal has also been acting strange. It keeps going into a mode where it doesn't show everything... even when asked for it.  Maybe I just need to reflash. Any and all help will be appreciated. Meanwhile, my os180py download just finished.  I'm going to try it now. Cheers! Caryl </body> </html>
