So I played around with it for a couple of hours -- really easy to set up and many thanks to whomever posted the tip about getting around registration.
Everything was a breeze, except no youtube when I was browsing. Sooooo...I downloaded the ermine update and installed from a USB drive...took all of 3 or 4 minutes and now I have youtube!
With 1.6 I did notice the battery drained fairly fast --- I'm hoping with the 2.2 update that will be somewhat better.
Calibre didn't recognize my device, but I was able to transfer my books via USB -- all much easier than I'd anticipated, including the update which I was a little nervous about. Thanks, too, to all who made the download and instructions for that possible.
So far, it's a fun, useful little device! Reading e-ink is definitely a change from my Nook, but I think I'm going to like it a lot.
