Welcome and glad that you are happy with your ereader.

It would appear the text in the current book I'm reading is marginally smaller, and stepping up to the next size makes it too big.
|
The list of sizes has some holes in it. If you are a calibre user, you can set fonts to other sizes using my Kobu Utilities plugin.

Also, I notice there is no label to say how many books in the library (not that I've seen).
|
Hmm, I hadn't really noticed that. The reading stats page shows number finished and percentages, but no count. The only thing I can think of is the library list has "Page x of y" at the top. y is the number of pages and their are five books per page.
And just in case you haven't found out, most places that use italics in the interface can be pressed to do something. Press the "of" and entry field will be shown to type in a page number.

The firmware could sure use some tweaks to add some functionality. There are lots of things I'd like to see. I'll have to make a list sometime.
|
We all have one of those lists
Just look at how long the firmware recommendations thread is.

Overall, I'm really stoked with my reader - enough that I brought the wife one
|
I bought a Touch and my wife stole it. But I stole back it after a few days (she shouldn't have left it lying around) then bought her one the next week. Luckily she hasn't really looked at the Glo, or even worse, seen an Aura HD.
