Also, do you get ads on it? Have you hade any crashes? / thanks
I don't get ads on my DXG with the 3.2.1 image. Battery drain when the wireless is on doesn't appear to be an issue anymore until the rebooting problem begins: I've watched the battery drain while I've been actively reading and it's minimal. However, if I leave the wireless on and put the device to sleep it will eventually begin a reboot cycle that drains the battery. I don't know how soon after sleep it begins this cycle since, thus far, I've only witnessed it once during the day and once at night but if I leave the wireless on, put it to sleep, and then put myself to sleep, the device will be totally drained by morning.
