Thanks for that, I can probably wait a month, maybe.
O, Lord grant me patience ... but please ... will you make it quick

I'm so-o-o envious of all the folks here who are getting early access. It feels like the UK has been relegated to the second division for this model Not that I actually need another reader, of course, but I imagine my willpower will crumble quite quickly if/when they become available.
I'm really glad I'm not a Canadian that wants a Voyage. Many months later and... nada.

Just got mine delivered today but I've been too busy to open it!
Pre-ordered from Indigo/Chapters and they provided a tracking # etc and I could see the status of the delivery right up to where it was delivered today for anyone who's wondering.

Well that explains it. Apparently if you order from the US you don't get a tracking number to stalk.

I told my DH about my impeding Mother's Day gift. He acted all annoyed! Guess it's a good thing he never noticed that I got a Kindle Voyage, which cost a whole lot more!

280 books transferred by calibre; 30 minutes

Less than 15 minutes for the Glo HD to process all the books (all of them are in ePub format).

Got mine an hour ago at a Coles store in the neighbourhood. 233 books transferred with calibre in 11 minutes. About 13 minutes to process them.

Gonna be reading up a storm as soon as the battery is charged full (out of the box it had 67%).

Cool!

I think that the 20% vouchers are off of the ticketed price.

The driver for 1.48 should work with v2.0, but I haven't tested it. If v2.0 works for you on XP, then go ahead and use it. If you do have problems with connecting to a Glo HD, or Aura H2O, remember to post the full details of your configuration.
FYI, transferred 225 books in 10 minutes. Looking good for v2.0 with the plugin.
Thanks again!

Looks like the only beta feature I'm seeing on the Glo HD is the browser; ALL games are gone!
