So by the time I could actually use the device, I was very grumpy and frustrated by the long process.
Someone in Kobo ought to grab this "user experience" and use it to educate their technical staff on what to avoid doing to a new customer. You are quite right to be grumpy, this is terrible.

Made worse of course by your fading font issue. Sorry I can't help you with that, except to say I have noticed some e-ink screens vary a little bit in blackness, and i thought it was temperature related (depending where I held the device, that area would be slightly warmer). If it's bad enough to annoy you, I am sure it should be replaced under warranty, or you could, as you say, get a refund.
