I loved my 1st gen. Kobo, and I've never had a problem with my KT [except the odd double page turn issue] until upgrades in the past couple of months.
How's the Sony working out for you? 
Your comment about buying hard copy vs ebook, I TOTALLY agree. I don't understand the thinking behind that at all.
And for those who've had no trouble, I was in that group. Enjoy it!  |
My wife's computer is a low energy demand Intel Atom dual core unit running XP with 1Gb memory. Most things run fine, but I feel that it could use more memory. Updating the Kobo desktop seems too much with this new version. I have a more powerful computer which did update the Kobo desktop O.K., but the software seems to take ages to move on to the next screen. It is obviously handling a lot of data. How many people have access to higher powered computers? I think Kobo have gone too far with this version.
I bought the Sony PRS300 as an inexpensive stopgap while I looked at what reader I really wanted. It worked fine, though a little slow until the morning when I picked up the T1, when it failed to turn on. That was returned under warranty and replaced with no problems. The 300 and the T1 are working fine (at the moment). I have Calibre handling all my books, which works extremely well, and more books downloaded than I will get through in my lifetime.
