The F seats are a bit stiff (likely will soften up over time). Row 3 seems especially bad in terms of pitch -- you can't have even a 14" laptop open when the seat in row 2 fully reclines without having to forget using the tray table and then having to wedge the laptop between the seat belt and the seat back ahead at an angle.

At least, that's a problem for someone who's tall.
