I showed up this morning and was told by Kohls they had to return the Novels, just like many others who have posted. All my enthusiasm for Pandigital eroded in a second. Well ColdSun I guess we might have an answer as to why your unit seemed good and Nate's seemed bad. Poor quality control. Or maybe Apple sued them or threatened to sue them. That has been know to happen! I am certainly suspicious of why a company that was so gung ho about their new product yesterday waited until the official in store debut day to recall all the units. The Kohls sale lady said it was defective packaging, but I have my doubts about that answer! At any rate, I'm too paranoid to buy it now.
