Charged my Kobo yesterday as the battery was getting low and I had read a couple of hundred pages since last turning it off, so didn't want to lose my page with a flat battery. Came home from work tonight ready to enjoy a drink and a good read, turned on Kobo and no books! Almost 250 epub and PDF books gone, including the 100 free books that came it came with! Full battery charge, connected to PC, copied books back to Kobo via ADE - disconnected properly from PC and now can't do a thing with it. Won't turn on, reset, nothing!

And it's a two hour drive to my nearest A&R store!

Yes, Clint, I will be seeking a replacement but it is reasonable to expect something like a Kobo to last more than three months.
