Also takes a fair amount of time to restart if you have put it down for a while to come back on to the page you were at. But the device is still OK, I have two of them and have given them to my younger children and they love it.
The page change is fine for me. It takes me longer to turn a page - or even rearrange from left to right - on a physical book.

I have not made the firmware 1.4 upgrade so I don't have the auto shutdown problem.
