I completely agree, especially about the 5-way controller. Also to simply open a book from the "home page" requires the pen. At home is ok, but when you are moving (I use to read while in subway) it's kind of annoying.

The battery drain/no wake up has been fixed with latest firmware release. No issues anymore.
I also noticed thaht there is a better response of the pen that is more reactive.
That said, I expect a lot better management of the hand writing in future FW releases. When you write the result is not yet smooth for a device released in late 2015/2016.
I also expect an improvement on the stability of the entire system. Too many freezes when starting clicking around for features. At least this is happening quite often with Onyxreader.
In my wishlist for the future releases of the firmware I have:
1) better handwriting perfirmance
2) better stability
3) possibility to assign actions to buttons (for example long press the back button to act like enter).
