Thanks to the developers at Sony for the last Firmware update(I think that was about a month ago 1.0.0.3.11140). It fixed the page turning/touch screen issue and took care of a problem with DRM ebooks from Thalia.de.

I still have a couple things I'd like fixed though.

- Italics and bold script: When I change the font, often these are lost. While it is possible to get them back by changing the font-size back and forth a few times, I still need to FIND the first instance of modified script to see if it worked. Plus, after using the homescreen the italics are gone again.

- Justification: I prefer left justified text and many ebooks are fully justified. I'll bet for half the people the opposite is true.

- Margins: If you're lucky, a book has none or at least equal ones on all four sides. In the latter case the zoom works, but if you have margins on the sides you're outta luck.

I do realize that these first three issues can be solved with calibre. Since my calibre setup(with plugins) atomatically removes any restrictions, I can't say for sure if this is possible with DRM'ed ebooks.

- Searching: This I consider most important. The present implementation is useless! When, for example, I've finally found the first instance of a character's name (by hitting the left arrow perhaps a dozen times) I need to hit the right arrow EXACTLY the same number of times to get back to where I was when I started the search. If I forgot to count, remember the page-nr or, god forbid, touch the back button, I'm lost. That's just total BS!
Forget the dumb left/right arrows. A good search function would have "first", "previous", "next" and "back" buttons.
