The main things I see so far that could be improved are
1. Global setting on style ie margins and justifications and line spacings.
2. I see no sign of a way to make it turn itself off after 5 minutes of inactivity.
3. It would be nice to be able to lock the orientation when you wanted to.
4. Adding cbr as a file format would be a plus.
5. And my REAL wish is that I could see a way to edit an ebook using that small keyboard as I read it ie fix ocr errors. Only use for keyboard I have found is surfing and using the tiny notebook program to take notes. If I missed the obvious someone PLEASE clue me in.

One future concern is I see no way to do most things if the joystick wears out. I hope it is a very long life part...

But all in all I find it well worth the $89 I gave K-mart for it. I think its music and video options are weak and its wifi is pretty slow but I could care less about them.
