I think it needs to be remembered that gadget reviewers see a *lot* of gadgets, and therefore cannot help but compare them side-by-side. Just like how movie reviewers see so many movies all day, every day, they cannot help but raise their expectations of what a good movie should be, simply because they have to wade through so many of them.

When you and I actually purchase a gadget, we become personally involved in it, we take our time, and get to know its quirks and strong points. Truthfully, the Kobo Vox is not exactly the most svelte "tablet" out there, and it's hardware specs are rather low-end in the tablet race ... but if it does what *you* want it to do, isn't that what matters? I agree, stop reading the reviews ... if you've decided you like your reader, then enjoy it and forget everything else. After all ... pouring over reviews is a good way to develop TAS (Technology Aquisition Syndrome).
