Hi, I've just ordered an opus

Hi everyone. I have just ordered an opus from the net. I have read all the comments here, and I must say I am a bit concerned about the freezing issue, but I really like the size and design of the opus.

I read a couple of hours a day and hope that the odd freeze will not spoil it for me. Its forecast minus 5 in the UK this weekend so it will be a good test.

Up to now I have done all my reading on my PDA and it has been fine, but I would like to read outside which is hard in the sunshine. I picked the opus because it is similar to a PDA, but a bit bigger so it will be an improvement on screen size while still remaining portable. Most of the 6 inch ones do look quite a bit larger that the opus.

The main thing I will miss is the enews feeds from mobi-reader. I know that I can set something similar up in calibre but it does seem more complicated.

I will let you know what I think of it when it arrives.

Gray
