No the reading part is actually quite good and the screen is okay (does a nice PDF reflow, too). I might just be a bit spoiled by the PB firmware that has a lot more possibilities!

Let's hope they do implement this!
As for the cool-er as an ebook reader, I think it's pretty good, and I really like the open system philosophy. Easy to read, lightweight and easy to use. Yeah, there are things that could be improved but hopefully the firmware updates will keep improving the product.
I ordered a super neoprene sleeve for mine from Amazon.com and even with the postage it was under £9. However, I've just seen today that there are now sleeves and covers available on ebay uk.
Has any one had any difficuly installing the latest firmware? I'm just waiting until I finish the book I'm reading.
best,
Pamela

Installing the new FW is okay! Well you still have to have really big hands or, better, three hands, for the update reset!
