Using the Kobo touch since a few days, it's definetely a nice device. The pdf viewing is pretty good but I was very surprised to note that the page numbers are hiding the last line of pdf documents when viewed in portrait mode.

The following updates would be great, some already suggested :

- Option: Hide the page number. For PDF files, the page number bar can block page contents !! (and in firmware 1.9.10, sometimes the page numbers are extremely close to the last line on the page)

- Have the option to have your current page be the sleep mode / power down page. Better still have the option to choose any page of any document to be the sleep mode / power down page. Owning the french model sold by Fnac this would be a welcomed improvement

- On the french edition it would be nice to have the dictionaries showing as main language French (e.g. French to German, German to French i.o. English to German, German to English)

- On the french edition it's not possible to obtain the definition of a french word. Fixing this would add a practical feature

Thanks to the Kobo team for their reactivity and regular updates to improve the potential of this great reader.
