The webbrowser itself is a little strange. There is, of course, the fact that it doesn't work in landscape, only portrait, but there are also other issues. It seems that the touchscreen calibration doesn't work here. I recalibrated a few times and also looked at how it works in scribble application and it is fine everywhere else. In the browser the little black arrow just doesn't correspond to the location where I place the stylus, and it is annoying since I need a little more precision when it comes to selecting items from the menu.
I have played around much less than you have, but I do not seem to have the same problems with the responsiveness in the browser - I wonder though whether my machine has been "optimised" before shipping, as when I received it it was fully charged, and, unlike what announced in the quick start guide, there was no "startup wizard", jsut the main screen.

As for the wifi connection, I was also asked for the network key the first time I connected (the first time being the setup test), but not the third time.
Now I am only terrified of breaking the screen when carrying the baby around, will need to find something (though the neoprene sleeve has reinforce sides, whcih is good.
