PinkET,

I feel a lot what you're describing.

I still like and use my Glo in spite of all this. But as I said in another thread, the perpetually half-baked firmware has actually made me cancelled my Aura purchase, and I will be seriously tempted in buying the next Amazon offering that will go out to compete with the Aura.

I could live with a lot of issues if at least the one that are the heart of the reading experience could get adressed, mainly the broken bookmarks function. Since how many firmware releases has this been broken? Why do I keep coming back to my book either one page forward or one page backward? This is beyond me why this cannot be solved or is not getting adressed.

The change to the brightness control also surprised me. I find it less convenient than in the past. Also now, you have no choice but to look at the black smudges at the bottom of the screen since you cannot have that black bar anymore with the light on.
