For the last month or so, I've been dealing with a half dead DR1000S. I've written in another thread what I've been going through. On top of random software bugs which are not easy to reproduce, I now seem to have random hardware bugs, popping up every once in a while.
I'll check if Irex will accept to fix this thing under the warranty. It has been more than a year since I bought it, so if they say no, there is no way I am spending another dime for this device. To be honest, even if they fix it for me, I still can't say I got to use the device to the full extend I expected to do. The full extend here means the device working as advertised

According to other messages in this forum, people usually had better luck than me, and I'm glad that at least someone is enjoying their readers.
I'm a PhD student with lots and lots of stuff to read and to annotate. I was on my way to tube today, thinking about Kindle DX. Plastic logic device also looks good, but with earliest deliveries being available in April and only in USA make it a little bit too distant(?) for me.
My personal experience so far makes it hard for me to recommend DR1000S.
Kind regards
