There were all sorts of RTF files that the Reader wouldn't handle - it just gave an error when you tried to load them.

Another issue was that it would randomly lose all your bookmarks. That one was particularly infuriating if you'd spent days marking all the errors in a book.

Both of those issues were fixed in the first firmware update.
When I got my 500, I didn't get to use it with the new firmware. I gott o update it before I got to use it. So I have no idea what was going on with the original firmware.

How long did it take Sony to go from the original firmware to the first update?
