I'm happy that B&N and Amazon both seem dedicated to improving the firmware for their ereaders, unlike Sony which never updates firmware except to change their business model!

1.1 does indeed give us pinch and zoom in the browser, although it is slow and the screen is rather jumpy when you use it. It is a long way from being as smooth as the iPod touch or iPad. But at least it now works.

I wish they would have given us a landscape mode for reading ePubs. We have had two updates and still no landscape mode, which is a standard feature on most ereaders.
