I am affected by the opening at wrong page problem, but it doesn't occur with every book, and it seems to depend on where I stop reading the book. If I stop reading on the first page of a new chapter then the book will usually be reopened at the correct page, but if part way through a chapter, especially a long chapter, then often it opens a few pages before the correct page..

I also noticed that when starting to read a new book, if I close the book after only reading a page or two then that book is still listed as unread in my library. If I then put the Glo to sleep it does not use the cover of that book, but instead uses the default sleep mode image.

Overall though I think firmware 2.3.1 has fixed more problems than it created for me. Being able to adjust linespacing and margins in most books without needing to run them through calibre first is great. Some other (badly formatted) books caused my 2.1.5 Glo to crash when trying to adjust the linespacing, and while I still can't adjust the linespacing in those problem books, at least with 2.3.1 attempting to do so no longer causes a crash.
