I know it's a bit of a hobbyhorse of mine, but I still think that we should register our unacceptance of poor firmware by returning devices that we are unhappy with. If we just sit and wait for firmware updates - which may NEVER fix the problem, we are only allowing the makers to sit and enjoy their profits - and there'll be less incentive for them to do the job right now or in future.
Haven't got your fortitude. Until a more pleasant ereading device comes along they will have to pry my Kobo Mini from my cold dead hands.

I know you are right and I may return my T1 which is far more buggy and a firmware update is not too likely from Sony it seems.

Kobo should be able to fix the multiple page turns easily and the crashing when changing fonts problem and I hope they will, but I can live with them.

On a positive note I started reading a book with triple line paragraph breaks. Got on my nerves so I fixed it and resent it. Kobo messed up my front page books but remembered the place I was reading in that book even after it was changed and resent.
