I think they are all made by the same company, just sent out to different sellers and each proberly edit the software to suit them.
I had the original software on mine but there was no site to update the firmware and no brand name as i'd bought it off ebay.
Then i found migear site and tried all their 3 firmware types 100 101 and 102 all installed ok and worked but bits missing from menus even tho the layout was the same.
Then i found skytex site and tried their firmware which installed with no probs, think i'll be sticking with skytex firmware.
Thats about all the info i have. Maybe later 1 of the companies will add some more updates.
I've looked for more info but can't find any at the mo.
My opinion is that the skytex 1.1 firmware works for me.

So if you want read books- use migear firmware
if you want different media support- use skytex firmware or original mebook
can't find mebook site

Where can I find firmware for mebook?

Also when you guys read pdf book, how do you move inside the page? I mean the screen is not long enough to display whole page so I read it in landscape mode, how do you change from top half to bottom half(specially in skytex firmware)?
Thanks!

how to charge via USB?
now it's always the way to transfer files

In windows, safely remove those 2 drives, but do not unplug the reader, the blue light will start to blink, it means that it's charging.
