My wife will like the free light as she has stolen my Gen3 and uses it to read Japanese novels in the dark, thus the "gift" light will be stolen as well.

I was impressed the battery was at 40 percent. good enuf to play around with. I have it charging now and am putting an array of formatted books on it to test it out. not sure if I have the latest firmware:

as of now it is : Linux kernal: 2.6.21.7
and FW V2.02Astak0912....etc... me thinks.

Anyways looking forward to comparing it to my Gen3 and 505...will post when I have fooled around with my new PP. So far love form factor.
Dear Hidari:

Looking forward to your posts. Glad it arrived quickly. DO get the latest firmware... as it gives you the visible clock, longer battery charge life, 9 font sizes, and more. It does NO harm to pick the latest one and try it. If it is on there... no problem.

Yes, quite like many Japanese girls, the Pocket PRO form factor is light, thin, and a great joy to hold. So, I think you will be very pleased.

Hope you do not take any offence. Just trying to be friendly..
