Hi

Most users on here are probably Canadian which makes sense seen as the the Kobo is canadian isn't it? I can't see many UK posters on here!

Mine was a birthday pressie and I wanted a Kindle but my hubbie was told the Kobo did so much more and was told you can read any books on there so they sold it to him.

I am still unsure it's right for me, I wouldn't say I was a technical person but I am OK researching and sorting stuff out, it just seems a hassle.
I have loads of questions, so far I have just downloaded 'free' Kobo books but using Kindle formats seems very complicated.
I can't even download the Kindle app as I get a message saying no android recognised.
The battery drains real quick, and it's not user friendly so far, I want to persevere but can't help feeling disappointed.
Is there a step by step guide on how to do basics anywhere?
Thanks!
