I couldn't pin it down but I had the same reaction to the Nook. I think it was the big rounded corners or something. The 2 month's battery had me me LOL when I heard that. I did some math tonight and I'd say I'm an average to fast reader and on the smallest font size was getting about 1 page/min. Based on 30 min per day and assuming I'm slow so using 2 page/min over 60 days that's only 3600 page turns which is probably not far off the Wifi Kobo if you don't use the wifi at all and turn it completely off when not in use. Good marketing on their part I guess.
