The Kobo people have great CS so far as I've seen -- I wrote them re: Kobo Touch and asked if it supported folder browsing, and the answer I received had clearly been written by a REAL PERSON who had READ AND UNDERSTOOD my question. I was blown away.

Unfortunately, the answer was "no, everything is dumped into a single library". Alas.

I'm on Cloud 9 with my Sony. But I can see where you're coming from on the store/app stuff. I'm sorry this is such a hard choice for you -- doesn't seem fair somehow.

I *will* say, and I hope this doesn't cause too many flames, that I don't think B&N will push very many (if any) enhancements to the N2. The NC has had one major update in, what? Eight months? And the update was incredibly... focused to say the least. We got an app store and that was it. Nothing about the shelves, PDF viewer, etc. was fixed, and B&N won't even release a development timeline with those things on the list.

I'm sorry to say, but I think the B&N development motto is that you'll get what you get and you'll be grateful for it. That's....fine. Whatever. But I wouldn't keep a B&N product MERELY on the hopes that it will "get better later". 'Cause I don't see that happening.
