Nice. If the graph works, can I assume that Time to Read will also work? I assume that kepub basically is epub plus some extra metadata, and that Calibre can handle that conversion?
The font options and the bigger screen makes the Aura a desirable reader to me. Sometimes, the font options of the Kindle irk me. With some books, I set size 3, with others it's 4, but sometimes there should have been a size 3.5... And I'd wish to fatten Palatino, for example. The Kindle can't do these things.
I really didn't like the Glo's almost azure blue front light, but I like the warm yellowish one of the Aura. I actually like it more than the Kindle's colder white. I just hope the service and firmware issues are a bit exaggerated, should I decide to get this reader after it becomes available.
I'll probably have to get it from Germany again....
