The other is the unnecessary delay when switching the device on. Maybe I am spoilt by the previous palmtops I owned (Handspring Visor, Palm TX, HP Ipaq hw2xxx series), but I expected that the wake-up from standby would be almost instantaneous. With PDAs, it was certainly so, no matter which program was used to read the ebook - be it Mobipocket, Isilo or Palm Reader. It seems things are different with Jetbook. Every time it wakes up from standby, it seems to do something, so there's a delay that is quite noticeable when compared to the palmtops. Perhaps this is just a software problem that can be healed by improving some bits in the firmware, but there's no new firmware, so we're back to square one...
Mine takes about 4 seconds.

My Blackberry takes over a minute to open any reader program.

Edit: I know that I sound like a cheerleader, but I really like my JBL.
