This video shows the flipping page touch sensor problem of the newest Sony PRS-T1 Reader, which is for example discussed on http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=153031 and many other places. Sony released PRS-T1 Firmware Update 1.0.03.11140 which should solve the problem. The next view days will prove if the problem is indeed fixed. If you have this update and still encounter this problem then please report!

For those living in Houston, sorry for the typo...

  • I have still yet to experience this problem after a couple of months of use.

  • @amex02 Polls show a rate of 60% with and 40% without the problem (see link in the video description, other such polls concur). So congratulations! Also some users always use the hardware buttons, that will avoid the problem too.

  • @pe1dnn Hey, I'm currently very keen on purchasing this reader. My only reservation is in relation to this problem. If I may ask, does this problem persist even after the firmware update to version 1.0.03.11140 which claims to 'improve touch panel functionality' ?

    -Kindly

  • @chazzyou I haven't heard any report of the bug anymore after using this firmware.

  • My God, I just bought mine yesterday and it started doing this today and it freaked me the hell out! But glad that the firmware is going to solve the problem, going to download it when my PRS-T1 is fully charged.....

  • I bought it yesterday and I was reading for 4 hours, then it started to works bad. It was blocked, I couldn't use the tactil sensor, only buttons worked. I had to "standby" the reader, then turn on and it worked well again.

  • <- lucky one, never got major bugs with mine t1 :D.

  • @ajft Not off, just switch a few times between standby and running. Seems to work! Otherwise reset. The problem seems to stay away longer after a factory reset (not tested myself; warning: erases everything!). Can't post links here to the procedure, use Google search.

  • I had the same problem. It was OK after updating the firmware to latest version.

  • @pe1dnn can't switch off, because to switch off you have to confirm on the touchscreen and the touchscreen doesn't work!
