I don't mean to sound negative but I bought one of the first Sony TV's to incorporate a digital/freeview tuner. This was about 10 years ago when digital tv became available in my area. I had no end of trouble with it- the main fault being that the tuner kept on losing channels and had to be manually re-tuned 2 or 3 times a month. Sony kept on promising a firmware fix for this. After 18 months and no fix that actually worked I sold the tv and bought a Panasonic, which was trouble free. So I wouldn't hang out waiting for a solution to come from Sony any time soon
Apart from that they have as yet to open their UK store, I believe it has now gone back from October to Dec.

Looks like you haven't been reading the Kobo Touch threads.

And yeah, many of the 'problem' threads have been started by vxf who doesn't even own a T1 - so you might want to filter out all the trolls before you decide.

Which isn't to disbelieve the people who really have had problems, but I haven't and I use mine pretty heavily, and there certainly is someone here with some sort of interest in stirring things up.
