One common comment I've seen over and over in multiple forums and threads strikes me as being very interesting. Among those who have requested at least one replacement and then chose to keep one of the PWs they received, almost every one has said something similar to this, "I guess I'll keep #? as it seems to be the least messed up of the lot. It is not that great, but I guess I'll keep it anyway." (Just an observation.)
I agree, I don't believe they will fix the 1st generation. They are never going to own up to the problems. I'm also not really convinced they will release a new version in the Spring.

As for your second comment, I agree, and I'm on that same crazy train although I go back and forth on it. On principle I feel I should return them both as they both have issues. My problem is I really like the dang thing quite a lot, so I will likely end up keeping the "best" one. I still prefer using it over my Kindle Touch with a clip on light.

I was actually all set to keep it and then I noticed the tiny black speck and it put me back on the merry go round.
