The other thing is that my KT actually seems dramatically slower since the update.

Sorry Kobo, if you really want to sell me books you're going to have to do a much better job than this. I'll be going out of my way not to buy them until things improve.

All up, I'd give this update an E- .The only things nice I can say about it is that it hasn't actually killed my reader or given it a virus (I hope). And that at least "airplane mode" stays off now when I restart the reader (in previous versions it would be off).

Maybe I should be looking into an alternative operating system.
+1 on that!

I have seen *numerous* requests for proper tag, series and metadata support over the past 6 months. I have not seen one single request to have a bunch of advertising take over the home page on devices that people paid full price for.

Come on Kobo - how about listening to your paying customers and adding features that people want, rather than cramming in crap your marketing idiots tell you to???
