The PDF / Landscape thing for me is killer. A lot of my comics are in black-and-white PDF.

If Kobo Touch does landscape/zoom/pan out of the box, then they've got themselves a new customer. I'll miss the dedicated page turn buttons, but I'll adapt. Easier to re-train my thumbs than to re-train my reading habits.

Although I will hold off to see if someone roots this N2 and slaps a better stock reader on it. Here's hoping.

I really don't understand B&N. If you're going to put out a "simply read" reader with no browser and no audiobook / Text-to-Speech support, why would you not provide the READING aspects??? Between the ghosting (so glad that we have a pic posted in the other thread) and the no-landscape / crappy-PDF support (which were always the biggest frustrations with the NC), this seems like a brand killer, if you'll pardon my hysterics. I was just so excited, sigh.
