Hi! I'm so tempted by the Kobo Aura HD. What could be better than e-ink on a bigger screen? I read quickly and my eyes aren't good enough anymore for tiny fonts, so I'm turning pages constantly on a 6" reader.

But I have a question - I've already amassed a lot of books for the Nook and Kindle, and I'm not willing to commit exclusively to one book vendor. Is it possible to run Nook and Kindle apps on the Kobo Aura HD? Would I have to root it (and if so, how)?

I guess what I truly want is a full-sized Droid tablet in e-ink rather than color, but so far as I know no one has made one yet. Unless this is it.
