HOWTO: Sony Librie English GUI Firmware Patch

Posted by timothy on from the for-the-well-equipped-commuter dept.

ptorrone writes "Here's a HOWTO on changing the firmware to English from Japanese on Sony's Linux based e-ink device- the Librie. The latest update fixes a few issues, has more of the device translated and you can now run scripts off the the Memory Stick. We'll also going to be posting up how to make non-DRM ebooks shortly."

    This article has to own the record for fewest posts for a front page article. Wow. Does anyone own one of these newfangled gizmos? Are there any plans to release a legit English version in the US? Does anyone want it with the nasty DRM it has?

    I don't know much about this device and don't really care to learn anything, but if you can watch anime and type in Japanese, it would rule! A big step closer to being this guy.
