I think its been more people complaining that it didn't do things as well as they expected. Mostly things that are in addition to being an ebook reader. ie its VERY slow if you try to surf the net with it. It seems to do audio and video files at best sorta decent. As I said a while back, I could care less about that kind of stuff. I got it to read ebooks on.
I didn't really notice the losing the SD card bit since with 2 gig internal I only used an SD card long enough to see that it did work with it. I had noticed the problem with the on/off switch not always working but if that is stubborn I have always had the Poweroff selection on the main menu work. It doesn't perform miracles on pdf files but it displays them better than any other reader I have seen. Lets face it, for pdfs to do well you need a HUGE screen. I pretty much avoid pdf whenever possible. I have seen several complaints about battery life. 8 hours is pretty darn good for it to be color and backlit and 7 inches really. I rarely if ever am away from an electrical outlet 8 hours of reading time.
