I've owned a Kobo since day one and nothing has really improved. The store is still a joke, you can only add things to your wishlist that Kobo recommends to you. Every single search results in a few...

I just called the tech support line and I got an outsourced call center whose only advice was to re-install the program. How long has Kobo been using these people, it was as awful as calling PayPal!

Honestly I'm not sure why it's important that the Kobo's d-pad be a very soft, rubbery material (as it's easy to make something ergonomic out of something a bit more resilient). But I do like the way...

That's really not bad at all. I still think Kobo should have some kind of battery replacement program, hell you could even charge some amount for it and make the customer pay shipping. Still better...

Very true. I wouldn't expect ePubs purchased/otherwise obtained from sources that aren't official Kobo (Borders, the Kobo store etc) to look good right off the bat.

It would be nice if there was...
