1) It's going to take me forever to get used to pressing the power button as opposed to sliding it.
I keep getting it wrong to, but the Glo and Touch have a raised bit, so my fingers are starting to learn. But, now I have to get used to the Glo HD button being in the middle.

2) I think I can see a definite difference between the Carta screen and my old Pearl one.

3) I know it's necessary so the port cover worries me. I think I'll be treating it with kid gloves for a long, long time.
I was tempted to take it off as I'm not that interested in the waterproof side of it. But, I've gotten used to it. I do tend to open it and leave it open for a while if I'm at my computer.

4) Calibre support in FreeBSD is currently pathetic. I think I might try porting the current version as a fun project.
Hmm, "fun project". I've tried a few of those in the past and I've always regretted it.
