I think that Bookeen could solve the problem by making the square cutout in the case larger so that it would be possible to hit the page advance straight on instead of from the side.

I got mine the same day as you (yesterday) and will have a more complete report later. Thanks to NAEB for great service & a great price.
About the page turn, when in book reading mode you can use the 'down' part of the square as well as the 'right' part to advance a page.
Likewise, the 'up' part will give you page back as well as 'left'.
I discovered that early on and it is a thumbsaver, and you can use either thumb.
I was very much disappointed in Gen 3 at first but it is slowly growing on me. Someone wrote a while back that a white or light color encasing the device makes the device 'fade away' while reading. This has been true for me as I can't enjoy reading the Gen 3 out of the case (the black surrounding the screen I found annoying), but in the (light brown) case it is much more pleasant.
Gen 3 out of the case is SO light and tiny it feels like a pamphlet, not book-like as with Irex or Kindle.
P.S.: While I'm here, how does one delete a book? Do I HAVE to hook up the USB and remove it that way? Is there not a way to remove it via the device?
