Mainly I want the device to read epub and pdf in a 6'' screen.
- ¿Can I modify the css stylesheet like in sony prs? (specially the font type and size?)
- ¿Do de hyperlinks work?
- ¿Does it have any kind of diccionary?
-¿Any other interesting features or firmwares you think I should know?
Well, that's all,
Thanks!
- You can modify the CSS stylesheets by editing the epub but not for DRM'd files. However, there are more size choices already present on the Kobo reader so it is less likely to be needed. Font type is a different issue and it is currently not possible to add external fonts to the device although embedded fonts work I believe.

- hyperlinks do not work, unfortunately so you are limited to TOC entries and goto page numbers.

- It has a dictionary but it does not work with all books, only kepub versions. See the wiki for a discussion of kepub.

- multiple devices can be sync'd for kepub documents so you can be reading on one device and then continue on another.

- The wi-fi is only linked to one store, Kobo or Borders at present.
