Yes, I do remember seeing that and was surprised. It's been stated that we shouldn't buy devices based on possible updates to firmware. In my case I'm willing to anticipate such an update from Kobo, whereas I'm not hopeful that B&N will address the undisclosed ghosting and sync issues. I've read on the BN.com NOOKcolor forum that people have had this sync problem with the NOOKcolor as well. I wasn't using the NOOK Android app when I had the stock ROM in my NOOKcolor, so I can't confirm. It's unfortunate that I've become cynical with regard to B&N's updates. They often break things with their fixes (speaking of the NOOKcolor) and the updates include things people didn't request.
