Hi,

bought the Cybook Opus today to use when my Sony PRS-600 is too large to fit into the pocket of my jacket.

Nice device, display is same quality as in my old PRS-505. All in all everything is ok (at least for HTML/ePub content).

But I have one problem:

Switching on the Opus takes around 10 to 15 seconds until finished (very annoying) and then I have to select my current book again to continue reading.
Is there no kind of standby-mode like in the Sony readers? The Sony takes only 1 second to switch on and automatically displays the last read book page.
On the other hand, leaving the Opus switched on is no option because the keys get accidentally hit.

I have firmware 2.0, does 2.0 bring any improvements for that problem?
