Just got a Clara HD this week. Nice device: great size and weight, easy to setup, gorgeous screen, super easy to side-load all books from my Calibre library, and also love the Overdrive/library integration.
But...I've noticed 2 significant issues impacting the usability.
- Lagging and slow performance on some operations. Example: you click a link to a distant location in a good-sized book like Shakespeare's complete works. Or open a good-sized book. It takes unacceptably long--sometimes 5 seconds, 7 seconds, or more--to locate the new position and re-render the page.
- Lack of sensitivity to screen pressure for executing some touch commands. Example: trying to adjust the screen brightness by swiping along left side of screen. The large majority of the time this operation is not recognized by the software, or it does something annoying like flip the page back instead of adjusting brightness. There are other screen commands too that are frequently ignored by the software.
Has anyone else noticed these? Is there a potential fix for either one, besides waiting for software updates?
