I've done this elsewhere, but.....General issues with the PP

the menu font is way too small

If you have an SD card inserted it ALWAYS goes to it rather than where you last were (internal memory)

bookmarking is a pain the butt and very non-intuitive - on the sony it's just one button to set of clear. The sony menu has a bookmark page and simply select the bookmark you want to go to.

The mp3 player is almost unusable without a manual in front of you.

It's difficult to know what the arrow keys on the keypad do as the function changes. I still can't figure out when and how to use hyperlinks

What does "Music is playing" on the menu mean???

The screen contrast is poor compared to either the Sony 505 or the Kindle2

The buttons don't always work -- you have to sometime press twice or multiple times.

There may be other things I've forgotten...
