I'm going to abstain from voting, but there are a few serious bugs left to be fixed. At the moment the still way too long delay when starting up with a bunch of books on the external SDHC is a pretty huge one.
If they just simply restricted New ebooks to be added to only one directory -then scanned into the Db and saved appropriately, and restricted the deletion of any ebooks so that it must be done through the database they could eliminate the need to scan a large collection of ebooks on the SDHC every time the unit is powered up to determine if anything had changed... Simple, no? Couple it with a [Scan Everything] button for the occasional screwup and all would be better, if not well.
For mature, third or fourth generation hardware, the software needs an overhaul to eliminate excessive startup delays.
This one is more subjective, but an interface where the Main or Home screen is in a constant state of flux is just plain confusing. A configurable interface is fine, preferred in fact, but there should be an element of solidity and one should experience a sense of familiarity on the home screen. Tiles that come and go, or that don't allow for dismissal are mistakes. Further, the text seems a little small on the Glo's home screen, likely because it was designed for the Aura HD home screen... This is not Horse Shoes or Hand Grenades. Close, is not good enough.
