While the new firmware may have fixed some bugs, none of which I was experiencing, the event management of the page button is not a good step forward.

Somebody, please send me the 'old' firmware! (I'm going to try Bookeen, but an expecting to be pointed at the new firmware)

I am understandably hesitant to jump right in and go from bad to worse.

I'm going to wait until a lot of users have upgraded to see if it is indeed an 'improvement'.

Again, IMHO, Bookeen falls down in the software department when compared to Sony and Kindle. I've had zero problems with the Sony & Kindle, which is what is to be expected when paying $300-400 for devices like these.

It is a nifty piece of hardware though, and I do use it a lot, especially when reading while laying down. The superlight weight can't be beat, even by Jetbook.
