Before, Sony Readers where top quality. They just worked. There were no questions about defective batch, or s/w issues or anything else. The Sony Readers worked. Period. That was the reason Why I loved all my Sony Readers. All of them were reliable right our of box. They all work even today. |

If it does it should be a relatively easy fix for Sony to update, unless the hack is more widespread before they get their act together. In which case it may get sorted by the 'enthusiasts'. |

I received a replacement T1 as I was experiencing the page flicking/touch screen not working problem. I thought the replacement was fine, but today the same problem occurred and I had to do a hard reset. Surely this must be a software problem?

You used to pay a premium price. At $149 it's no longer a premium price - the Kindle is only $10 cheaper. I think I would prefer the premium price if I could get a premium product.

"Sony Screen Freeze" happened to me within a couple hours of purchase at a Best Buy in Canada.
Here's my experience: I hadn't yet loaded any new books on it, and was just trying out the reader with the pre-loaded material...screen froze up seemingly for no reason. I just put into sleep mode and went on with my day(no powerdown or hard-reset)... Next day, woke it up and it was working fine. ...weird. Firmware update please!!! Too bad the T1 isn't made by RIM...it would receive negative headlines in the news everywhere - and maybe we'd hear something from them in acknowledgement.

Whelp, my new device just did the page-flipping/touchscreen-locking thing last night, though it took a week or two to manifest this time. Do you all really think that SONY will release a firmware fix for this?

Omg.
Guys, I am sorry to hear about it. No gloating on my part. I was Sony Reader fan from the day one of PRS-500. I wish if they wanted to have a cheap plastic reader to compete with Kindle and others, they had made two models. Budget and premium. Let us, customers, decide which one suits our needs. |

It is understandable that these type of bugs would happened with new platform/software and although I will be patient, I'm not sure the typical consumer will be. |
