I determined the best way to know is to get it and try it myself so this is what I'll do. Thanks.  |
They've had (technically) two firmware updates, and are now at ver. 1.1.1, which took care of the biggest issues. There are a couple of annoying ones left, one of which has a reasonable workaround. They've also suggested/implied/stated that another update, which will fix those last few issues, is coming within the next week or so. Personally, I'd rather they take an extra week or two to make sure it's solid.
Personally, mine's been pretty stable, except for the CRS Syndrome with regard to bookmarks. It appears no one realized that the same buffers that get flushed on the way to standby mode should also get flushed at the start of the shutdown process.
