My companion software never found the new software. I even tried to force it to grab it. They say copy system folder to root but there already is a system folder. I opened up my system folder and copied the files in the zip system folder to it. The pre/post updates were fast.

I opened up a 1100 page PDF and if I didn't no any better I would have said it must be only a dozen pages. It opened very fast. The page turns are also fast. I have a 100 page PDF notepad for taking notes. I like the thin lines but hated the delay it took to open the PDF. Now it is fast.

One bug seems to be fixed. While connected to power the right side capacitive buttons always got stuck and a light would stay on. Now it works fine. The bottom side button seems to require a bit more pressure but I can live with that non-problem.

I believe I waited long enough for it to go into sleep mode. Very nice improvement. Also the pen writing has almost zero delay.

I have only had the upgrade for a few minutes so other fixes or any new issues for me are yet to be seen. If what I have seen is any indication of what is in store then I say this appears to be an excellent upgrade.
