Also curious about the "not enough ink" comment. I noticed that very small print, especially in pdfs that are plopped onto the reader as-is will show up in a way that sounds like you describe. But text books at larger sizes (I like the first book I bought, for example, set at L when I read) haven't given me that impression. Do you feel the same way about bigger text?

"Beginning of the future of books?" I sure hope so!

I have indeed tried resetting the device, to no avail.

About the text, I also tried making it larger and I still felt like there wasn't enough depth to the text. I'm sure this one is very subjective, though. I wanted to get out a black ball-point pen and fill in the letters a little more. That's the best way to explain it.

That said, I can surely afford the $350, so I'll be patient until I can get a new one from my Borders. It really is a fantastic unit, and I'll be exchanging mine just as soon as I can.

That said, I can't help but feel like new Readers are just around the corner...
