Count me in as another happy t1 owner. I've come to notice that yes there are a few people who own the device and had crashes or freezes and report them here - and about for each single complaint a few who don't own it pick up on it and start shouting and yelling about "the problem."
This past week or so I've tried only using swipe to turn pages (as opposed to my preferred buttons), the idea being the touchscreen is buggy and causing crashes - but I haven't had any crashing from this method. The only time I've had issues was when I loaded a huge amount of books via microsd card and didn't wait for them to load before browsing through them (and bogging down the system) - I had a brief freeze until the dialog box came up, pressed the force close button, it went back to the homescreen and that was it. Eventually the books loaded and I went through the my books section page by page letting all the covers load.
I think the negative reaction is greatly disproportional to the actual issue.
Ill agree PDF support with reflow etc enabled is slow and you'll spend more time with "loading..." than text - but its a 6" eink ereader! Expecting flawless support of the format is like expecting a full webbrowser in the reader, and then being disappointed.
