I would like to know how to get the tiles back though... they don't seem to ever reappear on the homescreen after dismissing them (probably a good thing so you're not constantly dismissing them, but it's more for my own curiousity if it can be done).
I have played with it for a while. I installed CoolReader and Koreader. It just seems that Koreader constantly freezes when I'm reading a book and it takes AGES to render when I'm trying to change the fonts. It also takes a long time to open the book. I think this is because I'm using mostly kepubs. I wouldn't really recommend using them if the books aren't sorted in folders. It's hard to page through authors...

As for the tiles. It seems that you can get the Koreader tile back by pressing the home button on the Koreader. But this erases the most recent tile on your homescreen.

I deleted both readers after playing around for a while. But I do prefer Coolreader tho... It's just that the device has to restart to exit it...
