Yup, I pretty much agree with you - except I'm fine with the font. It's OK. Not awesome, but readable. All in all, I love this reader. I don't regret upgrading from the PRS-300.

That said - the music-playing functionality I find a little counter-intuitive and clunky, especially when I'm listening while reading (which IS half the point, right? Apart from audiobooks?). I can only play multiple mp3s in the same album - but the reader auto-sorts my mp3s based on the album field in the file properties. *sigh* Finally worked out that to get around that, I simply needed to edit the 'album' property in each mp3 to be the name of the playlist I wanted to use it in.
