Okay guys, I was playing with the new Glowlight 3 and I noticed pages in the book are shuffled. I noticed this in the store the first time I handled a Glowlight 3 (their display book was Treasure Island). I figured their ebook was hosed.

I bought mine and sideloaded my books and am seeing the same thing (coincidentally, on Treasure Island again). The sentence at the bottom of a page ends in a comma, then the next page starts a new chapter, then the page after continues the sentence from two pages ago.

My copy of Treasure Island is not the same as the one that was on the display model. In fact, it happened in both my copies of TI. The Penguin Classics edition and the Standard E-books edition. I read though the Standard E-books edition on my Kobo, so I know the book isn't the problem.

It happened in the store on a display model and on my device with the beta firmware, so I know the beta firmware isn't the problem.

I used three different copies of Treasure Island, but I seriously doubt the Nook dislikes Robert Louis Stevenson.

I guess I could experiment with turning pages using touch instead of buttons. Just want to know if anyone else has seen a similar issue.
