It explains that when ordering periodicals that the first issue will be delivered automatically, but that subsequent issues must be accessed via the "Purchased Content" button. It also states that a future update will correct this issue. Honestly, it is not a huge hassle, just a couple of button clicks and a short wait for the Wifi to wake up, but it is certainly a step back from the 900/950. Hopefully, it will not be too long before they correct it.

The thing is... when auto-delivery fails, on my 950, it takes 5-6 different screens to get to the delivery option... log into the store, click on my account, enter password, click sing-in, click on purchased content, click on periodicals, select WSJ, click on download past issues, select WSJ (AGAIN????), click on the issue. Then tab out to home and hope it did download, which half of the time is does not. If it does not work, repeat all of the above.
On a sluggish 3g and slow eink screen, it's pure torture.
But, truth is, auto-delivery has never worked properly on my 950 either. It misses issues regularly, on both my device and PC software - and it often freezes my device if I am reading while the auto-delivery kicks in. So, in this regard, it sounds like it won't be a big difference....
