Vox label for Kobo forum?
Can we please have a Vox prepend label for the Kobo forum?

Taming; I had actually asked for a distinct sub-forum (like they seem to have done for the Kindle Fire).

The moderating team is discussing this. We'll make a decision on the matter shortly.

I can understand the moderators need to talk about this--not the Kobo part--but the whole issue of whether we are talking about reading devices that do other things, or tablets that happen to run reading apps. Part of the challenge if i were part of the conversation is that with the changes related to enhanced eBooks, a new ePUB standard, the new Amazon format really mean that the devices we will read on (at least some of the time) are no longer dedicated devices.
I can see having a brand like Kobo or B&N, Amazon, Sony represented on MR needing (?) some way to deal with phone apps, tablet experiences, dedicated readers. Making decisions that carry MR into the future is a big topic. |

I like the prepend idea, it seems to work well in the Sony forum.

Personally, I think these tablet readers should be placed in their own forum (Tablet Readers) with separate sub-forums for the major brands (Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Kobo, Sony, Apple, etc) :

Yes Thanks indeed. I think it will help, especially with the major differences between the Vox and other Kobo devices.

Not to be picky (but I am); could we have an icon for the Vox subforum? Right now it shows a nasty missing image icon in Chrome.
