The reports of the viewing angle makes a mockery of those Kyobo ad spots showing a family gathered around the ereader. I'm guessing that isn't feasible in real world conditions? Is the viewing angle a problem a deal-breaker for personal reading or is something that can be managed?

Do you reckon the animation stuttering is a problem with the display or with the hardware/software on this particular device? is there any stuttering during video playback?

Also... the elephant in the room... how did you get it? Are you in Korea? Is it easy to use with being able to read Korean? Can you root it?

On to the next one already? haha. I think Samsung is supposed to have a 7.7" 1280x800 Galaxy Tab with SAMOLED Plus (not pentile) display by Q1 2012...
