I was as surprised as anyone that the Nexus 7 on the lowest brightness level allowed me to read effortlessly. Since I had Lasik done my eyes have been even more sensitive to backlit displays. I attached my current Moon+reader theme.

My only experience is reading folks initial frustration with setting up collections on the Kindle. There is a kindle collections plugin, but last I heard it wasn't working on the Touch or the PW. Search the forums and ask around to find out if kindle collections plugin is working with PW. I did see some threads on jailbreaking the device and setting up collections. Investigate, they may have everything worked out by now.

After reading all of the frustration I decided I would stick to Sony, which is so well integrated with calibre it is easy to assume every device has the same ease of use. Unfortunately hardly any device has the complete device integration with calibre that Sony had. The Nexus 7 using Calibre Companion is one of those devices. That may have to do with the fact that the same developer (chaley) integrated both devices with calibre.
