I would guess from the shipping delays from Amazon that the initial production of chips all had the problem I encountered - and they are replacing/reflashing the chips before shipping out a second wave.
When you get your unit, test it immediately by opening an article and then start tapping on the embedded links to move to other articles. The problem I encountered was getting a screen with the error message "There was a problem loading this page. Please turn your unit off and on." It was intermittent but persistent.

To the best of my memory, the screen size was approx. 3.5 x 3.5 inches - I was in a hurry to get it boxed up to meet UPS pickup time and didn't do a detailed examination of it.
