Thanks for the sneer. Apparently it's too much to ask to have a device just fracking *work without annoyances* (and without bugs) these days. It seems that if a device has anything to do with computers (even remotely, such as an e-reader), it *has* to be broken in some way, or try to force a certain way of doing things where that is not necessary.
The best you can hope for is that a device "only" has featuritis. (= Including a lot of functions just to be able to tout a list of features, even if only very few people will ever use them.)
The weird part is that it seems to be accepted that people have to find workarounds for bugs and/or annoyances to get to use their stuff as they want to. It's ridiculous.
Sometimes I think devices are solely created to earn money, instead of serving the customer. You know what? If you create a device that serves the customer *as he wants to* (which means, no annoyaces, bugs, or restrictions), then the money will be earned automatically.
