You can't claim that something that you think should be there, but isn't, is a "bug", come off it . Of what conceivable use are page numbers on a device where on has a limitless variety of fonts and sizes? My page 100 in a given book won't be the same as your page 100.

bookmarks not working
I use bookmarks ALL THE TIME to mark pages with errors while I'm proofreading my books. I am aware that some people have had problems with bookmarks, but it seems to be a damned elusive bug! Have you encountered it yourself?

no way to sort books in the library
Yes, there is. You can sort by title, file size, file date, or something else I forget off-hand. It would be nice to be able to sort by author or genre, I agree, but you can't claim that there's "no way to sort books".

unreliable battery indicator
Unreliable in what way?

Quote:
no indicator at all if you are reading a book and some more - well, these are not minor bugs, they are mediocre at best.
Again, I have to say that "something that you think should be there but isn't" is not a bug - it's a feature request.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the v1 firmware is perfect - it obviously isn't. But I think that FOR a v1 it's pretty damned good, and I'm sure that Bookeen will improve it with future firmware releases; their history of doing that with the old CyBook (which I also have) is very good indeed.
