Thanks everyone for your posts. Robert-I have to say that that is one of the reasons I decided to go with Astak and not the Nook--It bothered me how "absent" the B & N people seemed from all the conversation and how unable they were to answer basic questions.

I'm still getting used to the small screen but I like how light it feels--I think the cover adds to the weight but I ordered a Neoprene case I think might fit (if it does, I'll let you know). I don't like the click sound from the page turning--it sounds louder to me than even the Kindle's click--but I just use the scroll wheel instead. Overall, I'm happy with it--the #1 thing I wanted from it was a good PDF reader.
