The devices are okay, some more or less with older specs due to time.
I think the biggest issue is that the firmware contains a reader for epub and kepub,integrated games (the code seems to be inside) and while there are different mark releases,the kernel seems to be (imho) the same or related,maybe it is just trying to much different things.
I don't know the developers but it looks to me as a very old programmer (yes..basic.. the old sinclair spectrum and atari 64) that there are more or less teams that work a bit independant thinking: what can we improve or not..at the end it must all fit.. for as far as I understand there is some distance between the team and the betatesters and not a lot of interaction between team and testers.
That is not a fact,but more things that i "taste/feel" from a lot of topics.
I got an answer from Kobo Netherlands by mail,translated: "the software is to improve the device, if your one is rebooting it is not from the software,so try to change it at your local reseller as it is still in warranty."
So I bless the patch and don't reply to that...
