Stanza 1.9.1 for iPhone freezing

Hi,

I have stanza 1.9.1 on my iPhone and I'm reading a book on it, and after sometime the application freeze. It seems to be a random time. I cannot change page or open the status menu, the iPhone stays on. If I press the Home button and restart Stanza, the screen stays black. I've to reboot my iPhone to start Stanza again.

I've bought that book on Fictionwise.com (not stanza.fictionwise.com) in Secure ereader format and it loads Ok with the fictionwise' ereader apps.

Anyone has an idea?

Same here

I have a similar issue with iPhone OS 3.1.2 and Stanza 1.9.1. It happens with every book and reinstalling Stanza hasn't helped. I have noticed that if it locks, you can hit the home button, open Stanza again, then wait about 20 seconds. Stanza will quit at that time and send you back to the iPhone menu. Now when you go into Stanza it will open at the main book selection screen. This process is still a pain, but takes less time than restarting.

For Stanza Support: all of my books are created through the latest version of Stanza desktop in Windows, shared, and then downloaded to the iPhone. I too would appreciate any suggestions.
