Yeah, I think my free magazine subscriptions would've cost more than the Vox itself...
I hate the text option. I find the font and layout unreadable for some reason.
The zooming is also a little buggy - doesn't always focus properly unless you tap/move the screen.
BUT...I am still lovin' it! I'd say for 80% of most magazines, I am just looking at pictures, anyway. I got a back issue of Backpacker magazine (Best National Parks) and the photos are just spectacular!
And...since I am a bit of a hoarder of old magazines, I think I am doing my household a huge favor! Now I just have to worry about my ELECTRONIC hoarding problem!!!
