Well, Boris, js, and Dr. T, thanks for the warm welcome! And I'm glad that my assessment of the HSN reviewed help you all. I'd say that over 3/4's of the people didn't even turn it on or try to register the Edge; Buyer's Remorse, perhaps? Or real fear of Tech Issues? If half of the folks who returned it because of the Reader side had done a lick of research, they'd know that the Lion's Share of the e-Reader market does NOT have a lit screen! And then, of course, there were the people like me who heard about the battery issue, looked at the cost of the unit and didn't pursue the Edge beyond that, sending it back.

If what I read in this thread is true, that HSN sold over 13,000 of them, I'm sure that they pulled the product review catagory so they didn't end up with 12, 997 of them coming back to them!

I look forward to trying the Edge out, seriously, this weekend, for the two reasons why I bought it: a photo album to show clients my work and taking notes for jobs. Anything beyond that is gravy to me.
