The only "drawback" is the light, because now that I can see it blinking it is a little distracting, but I' m getting used to it and in a few days I think I won't even motice it anymore.
Really happy with it!  |
I've got the same one and I love it. I've had it for about six weeks now, reading several hours every day (a bit less now as I just started studying again) and it's really like new.
Just one thing, The book in the cover is on the right side, but sometimes I like to read with the book on the left side (in bed, lying on my side), and what I've been doing lately is putting the book the other way around in the cover, top on the bottom side, which allows you to turn it around. The openings of course do not coincide any more, but the only important button is the one to turn pages, and if you press on the leather where the button is situated it will work fine.
On the other hand those complaining about the lack of a hole where the indicating light is situated, I think you can cut a small hole with a sharp cutter, same with the side buttons.
