Hopefully, Amazon has acknowledged this and software updates coming soon will resolve most of these issues.

If they do so, I might still buy it. Because even so the Que looks real good, it is much safer to buy from a company like Amazon, not a startup. Perhaps Amazon even has a new large screen this year?
