Either way most of those issues weren't anything I'd consider bugs. There are still things I don't like, but there are things I don't like about other brands too & overall I'd call the device satisfying. Also I think some of my first impressions were colored by major problems I've had with Kobo's customer service and wouldn't be surprised if some others are too. IMO they still don't have great CS.

While I agree it was a little jarring moving from a Kindle (and it's formatting of eBooks) to the Kobo and it's large top/bottom margin settings and abnormal use of spaces between paragraphs in it's eBooks. The fact that the long paragraph bug exists on the epub engine and cut off text on the lowest side margin setting exists on the kepub engine shows how buggy and unrefined the software for this eReader is. Frankly neither of those problems should have ever gotten past testing let alone be tolerated on the finished consumer product. Couple that with the large amount of formatting errors in their retail eBooks that are caused by their proprietary kepub conversions and you can plainly see that the complaints are pretty justified.
