This is encouraging to see. My birthday is in May, I am planning to upgrade to a different e-reader and I find myself leaning towards The Sony PRS-T1. My husband and I are kind of leaning that way.
I've had to factory reset my Kobo a number of times, due to buggy issues. Last night was one of those times. My husband took it to work so he could "register" it over there for me, as we don't have a windows system at home. I have a good several months to do my research, but I am hoping that my next e-reader is as close to "out of the box" as I can get, for good personal use and being able to put my own non-DRM epubs on there.
I'd love for an e-ink e-reader to work in principle, the way my Sansa Clip does, simply plays whatever files I stick on there, period. Yes, i know they are entirely different devices, but I can dream
