This review makes it seem that the device is perhaps the worst technical device ever released. Do they get more ad revenue for posting bad reviews? I've been following this thread with interest and see lots of very happy Aura owners; not what you would expect based on the Gizmodo review. Goodereader.com also did some good reviews of the Aura and I have always thought those guys were very biased. So, I don't think I can trust any review Gizmodo does from now on. ...and, the guy has obviously never ever used any Kobo eReader before.
Would you trust a review written by this? (see pic)
That's the second bad Aura review from Gizmodo counting Gizmodo Australia. Once I could see but twice seems like an official line. Does Gizmodo have some kind of stance they're trying to promote?
