Hi all,
So, my Touch is still on 2.51 (loaded from the desktop update, not sideloaded), and is starting to show up a couple of bugs that I had experienced in previous versions of the firmware, but had thought were squelched.

Namely:

1) Sometimes, a single tap to move to the next page producs the next page incompletely written (only two non-contiguous strips of text, with the rest of the page blank) and then the next page after that is written to the screen. Very sure I haven't done a double-tap. I can then move back one page to the page that got skipped, and this time it writes to the screen correctly.

2) Sometimes, without my touching the screen, a word will be selected spontaneously (ie the control handles appear) and the prompts appear at the bottom of the screen as if I wanted to look this word up in the dictionary ... and the screen locks. When this happens, the X in the bottom-right corner is unresponsive, the screen is unresponsive, and the Home Screen button on the device produces no result. The slider at the top of the Touch works, though, and shutting the device off, then booting it up again and coming back to the book through the Home screen frees it up again. No idea what sets this off.

Just to be clear, I keep the screen clean, and the infra-red ports around the inside of the bezel clean and clear of fluff or dust. I hold the device with my hand across the back, so it's not a matter of fingertips overlapping the bezel and signalling unintentionally.

I don't really want to do a factory reset, if I can avoid it, because I don't want to go to 2.61.

Anyone else seeing similar behaviour on their Touch?
