Yes, thats what I did too, initially. But when the Metazoa patch became available for fw 3.0.0 there was no reason for me not to upgrade to 3.0.0. And I must say: i do like Pocket.
I've said it before: Kobo should have started to develop a totally new firmware from scratch when it introduced the 6" Aura and roll it out only to the newer devices such as the Aura HD. And putting the Touch, Glo (and probably Mini) EOL as these devices are 3 years old. I'm sure a lot of bugs would be gone permanently if Kobo had done that.
IMHO, the reappearing bugs are becoming really embarassing or awkward for Kobo and is certainly not contributing to a positive brandawareness.
P.S. If Kobo wants to keep a non-frontlight device in its line of e-readers then develop/redesign a new Kobo Touch and call it Touch HD (Specs of the Glo but without the frontlight).
