As a few people have indicated, as an ebook reader (as opposed to a tablet) it does the job very well - particularly if all your books are from Kobo's store. As a tablet, it is rather disappointing, which is why I also have my iPad. I do like reading in bed with the Vox (last night was the first) because of the more comfortable size. Today I will see how reading in sunlight goes on the Vox. I can see many situations where I leave my iPad at home and take the Vox, but not for anything other than reading books.
While I am at it, I am trying to find an easy way of getting my books off Dropbox and into a reader (not DRM books) and from what I have found, fbreader appears to do best and automatically accepting books downloaded through Dropbox (without having to take the extra steps of importing the books after exporting them from Dropbox).
I had used Kindle as my dedicated ebook app but on the Vox, I have yet to find a way of getting dropbox books detected when they are exported into the Kindle folder. A very early version of the Kindle android app would detect them but not the latest version. If anyone knows a workaround for this, I would love to hear it. Thanks!
