No big deal though, as I'm very happy with PRS+ as-is, but if space is at a premium and you guys have more useful stuff you'd like to add, then I would think a lot of users would happily forego the games.

Hi Belfaborac,
The problem isn't with disk space. The games don't take up much room on the reader, and only get loaded into memory when you start them. But that's when the problem occurs, especially on the 950. It seems that the games are not fully
unloaded from memory and so the reader eventually runs out of memory and crashes. The problem is worst on the 950 since the 950 requires more memory to run normally (all the wifi and web-browsing functions!) let alone once all the base PRS+ stuff is loaded. Unfortunately, there is basically no room left over in the memory for playing games...
To cut a long story short, there is no problem including the games in PRS+ as long as 950 users know they shouldn't try and run them! The games and apps are quite usable on the other models, you see. (However, if I start four different games in a row, my 650 will crash too. I just know that I should always keep to a subset of the games and I will be fine.)
Sincerely,
Ben.
