I guess you are right, you are definitely not condescending at all, my mistake

So you only downplay stuff you consider important, our issue is not even worthy of your contempt ? you are SOOO not condescending, I was so blind to think so
"as if both happened at the same time" Yeah, you are right, that is the main issue here. Since it did not happen at the same time, why the hell are people talking about it, the problem is irrelevant because it did not happen at the same time, of course, what was I thinking. Please let me check my Aura again for text ... checking ... OM MY GOD You are so right, the bottom wasted space is MAGICALLY not an issue anymore, now that I realize that it did not happen AT THE SAME TIME, thank you for opening my eyes on that.

With such an open minded, non condescending person, nope I have no idea which could possibly be at the bottom. If I could venture a guess, I'd say there is no bottom as you seem to value others' priorites as much as yours.

Care to venture a guess as to which one is at the bottom of my wish list?

I guess what you call condescending I would rather call irony.
If you don't mind, let me try some experimental condescending of my own:
No covers for sideloaded books ? Dude do you spend hours reading the cover or the book, seriously !
Wifi connection issues ? yeah we all do, but you don't see us whining about it
Slow reaction to USB being disconnected ? Who cares, as long as it eventually gets disconnected, stop wasting the dev's time with such nonsense!
Oh and did you check whether all these issues important to you HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME, because if they did not, according to your holy Gospel, they may not be actual issues anymore ...
So what do you think ? not great condescending, but then again as I said, it was experimental and I lack practice. Also in this thread I try to focus on the issue that bothers me, not on belittling others' issues with the update and that is probably the main difference between you and me. Oh but wait, I forgot, you are not condescending, so again my mistake. Please never mind my lost and confused comments.

I almost forgot about this line that seems to be genuine well meant curiosity. I embedded a video of the review a few posts back in this thread, look for it and you will find it, I'll give you a hint, it's post #316
