Also, when I was watching a video demonstration of the T62, I was disappointed to see that most of the book covers would not display. Is this a continuing issue or has it been resolved? Any advice on how to minimize this problem? If the covers don't show, is it difficult to figure out what your book titles are? (Do the titles still show with relatively large enough font to make it easily readable?)
After using a Kindle Keyboard, I was really looking forward to being able to see the book covers on my device.

As long as you don't have apps running frequently in the background you shouldn't need to use Set CPU or Greenify.
I have only used Moon+ Reader on this. I use it frequently and didn't mind paying the $5 for the pro version. I don't recall how much the free version is limited, but certainly try that first before paying for the pro.
For some reason on all my devices most of the book covers show in Moon+ but some don't. It must be an issue with the files. One of the many things I like about Moon+ Reader is that it includes the ability to download book covers.
One of the built in readers is based upon FB Reader, which I sometimes use on my tablets. The main program does not display book covers in the way which most reader programs do. They have more recently put out an add on which will give an interface with covers. It is either ad supported or paid. It does work well on my tablets, but I do like Moon+ better. I don't know if it will work with the version of FB Reader on this device.
It is certainly worth trying out the readers already installed on the reader, but I ultimately changed from FB Reader to Moon+ as my main reading app on my phone and tablets, preferring its features. I did get by find with FB Reader on my phone and tablets for quite a while so you might be satisfied with the version on this reader.
I don't know for sure if it would matter, but I would suggest avoiding ad supported programs and pay for those you wind up using (after testing the free versions). I wonder how much battery power is used in downloading the displayed ads and personally would rather pay for a handful of programs as opposed to risking this.
