I do have a few questions about the unit though.

When the 1150 is plugged in, how much does the tip stick out? My plug doesn't seem to go all the way in and I just wanted to make sure that's normal.

My plugs have also stuck out a bit, you can clearly see the barrel of the plug. The soldered connection to the main board can be fragile, try to keep it from flexing.

Does anyone else hear a low buzzing sound coming from the 1150 when it is being charged?

Yes, both of mine have buzzed. It's due to a DC t DC converter inside the reader.

And finally, when I run my stylus across the screen it makes a bit of a weird (bubble or static like?) sound. Is this normal?

There is a plastic overlay that may make some noise, I've not noticed it on either of mine but don't see it as a problem unless there is discoloration that indicates it's delaminating.

I just want to make sure if there are any other issues I let ETI know about them.
