I am assuming that the jetBook+ will also have a calendar/clock.

So the question is -- sleek look with a clock? or boxy corners with unlimited time?

(On a different note -- we picked up a Libre Pro for my husband this week, and we are comparing our ereaders to decide which one to get for the kids.)

Did you mean to post that the Libre AIR has a calendar/clock? The Libre Pro doesn't that I can see - although lately the Overdrive library books do expire after the check-out period. In the past I thought they stayed open until I connected to ADE.
