The only difference I noticed with the upgrade was the sleep/auto off.
It took me a while to figure out the paradigm for loading books to it:
1) Kobo books -
* search & buy books from website (watch for cheap and free books; "Top 50 books" is a good place, plus the MR forum)
* use desktop app to "Update library" to copy to your computer
* connect your Kobo and "Sync" to copy to your Kobo
2) Library books - use Adobe Digital Editions to download to your computer. Drag and drop to the Kobo device in ADE. If they are ePub, they show up in Books. If they are PDF they show up in Documents. My very first book was a library PDF and I was frustrated trying to find it!!!
3) PDFs - you can just use Windows Explorer to drag PDFs to your Kobo. They show up in Documents instead of Books.
Good luck!

Thanks for all your help!
Does anyone know if the Pearl screen will make a big difference (i.e. vs the Kobo screen)?
