"According to those lucky enough to have a Nook, firmware 1.1 is live now. Forums are full of sporadic claims like faster page turns and tweaked file handling. Have you noticed anything special?
Because in the words of our own Wilson Rothman, "It feels like not much has changed." The only thing he notices off the bat is that returning to the book you're reading, after going to the main menu, is quicker, though it's still just as slow to load a new book up. As for page turns, he's still seeing the 1-2 second page turns he saw before, and the highlights-and-notes bug he uncovered during his review seems to be unrepaired." |
This is false. The page turns are much faster and the unit itself seems a little zippier plus there are a couple of tweaks like adding clock and battery to the top.
There is definitely room for improvements. As others have mentioned I would like to see improvements made to side loaded content, ability to go to a specific page, etc. This is a great step in the right direction.
