My top firmware update requests -

1 - "instant on" option - rather than select the book I'm reading over and over, I would like to have the choice of continuing immediately from where I left off reading. If it's because it's taking too long to re-load the book I'm reading, I'm sure you can simply save the text of the currently rendered screen at powerdown.

2 - "pdf reflow" - read just the text from a pdf

3 - "landscape reading" - sometimes it's just more comfortable to read sideways on a wider screen

4 - "read while charging" - even if I plug the kobo into a simple usb wall charger, it still sits there in the mode where it wants me to load new books, and I can't do anything with it until I unplug it

5 - "sdhc" - others have noted that the kobo acts as a SDHC reader, even when it won't itself access the data. More space available would be very useful!

6 - "more formats" - I assume that certain file formats were excluded to save on costs (ie. programming, licensing, etc), so there's no .mobi or .lit and so on for now. But it should be relatively simple to add .html/.htm and .txt reading.

7 - "bluetooth" - I have the Kobo iPhone app, but can't sync to my kobo with it over Bluetooth. And I have a Bluetooth receiver on my computer, but cannot make use of it on my kobo.
