I have the latest firmware for the wifi. The new firmware that was recently released was only for the previous version of the Kobo not the wifi. With the wifi we have always been able to read while charging which is why this hasn't been as big of an issue. I am glad to hear it is not just me. I have noticed the warning isn't much when it is going. It drops from half charged to the warning screen pretty fast and as others have said it isn't much of a warning because once it shows up that is it. No more Kobo till you charge. I also noticed a huge difference in the battery life if you use the wifi function at all. Growing pains that's all. My husband cross border shopped a top of the line Sony and as amusing as having a touch screen and all that was I found issues with it's firmware too. My Kobo has less issues with using the wifi than his fancy Sony so C'est la vie!
