My Vox experience started out frustrating. I guess I expected the whole setup process to be more intuitive. I have the original Kobo and it was very easy to use, and was expecting the same for the Vox.

I bought the Vox on Thursday, it took me until Saturday to figure out how to get all my non Kobo books working. I now have my Calibre books imported into the Kobo app, Aldiko for my DRM books from eHarlequin and Overdive for my library books. Astro is awsome as a file manager. A big thanks to forums like these for guiding me along the way. I guess I expected alot of these apps to already be loaded to help along with the reading experience.

I haven't had any of the problems (knock wood) mentioned, and am just enjoying playing around with it. Overall a good buy and well worth it for me!
