And as for Leserli's outrage and need for people to complain to... well, good luck... I have better things to do with my time like find solutions and do my research before buying...
As I said before. In advance I read several reviews of what I thought good sources. But not one review even mentioned these problems!

Sure you could say, that you also have to dwell deep in all the forums to get all the problems, but should that really be necessary?
For you have several ebooks in your "possible buy"-list. And if you wanna really inform yourself in the forums about all the problems of all the readers, then you certainly have too much time...
Usually, it is enough reading several reviews. But it seems, not this time...

here are solutions out there such as PRS+ (for large numbers of files)
But as it unfortunately seems no solution for the annotation problem...

and realising that a tablet is far superior for lots of annotations especially if what you require is access to science books which are not exactly displayed at their best on any 6" or less e-ink device and really need something of the order of 10"+
Believe me, I thought exactly the same, this is why I at least bought a 650 and not a 350. But as it seems there are no bigger screen usable EPaper-Ebooks around, and as I said before IMHO are TFT-Screens of tablets just not made for reading a longer time...
This is at least like that for my eyes...
And these arguments IMHO just cannot be an excuse for these problems on the Sony-Readers. Why do they advertise features which are completely impracticable or implement features which are purely cosmetical, for like it seems it is not intented that they actually should be used?
