Got to say, I'm really loving the Espresso color. Last night it was a very dark brown that looked almost black, now, in the daytime, it's a chocolatey brown. I love the warmer tone as opposed to just plain dull black (which I assume is what the Onyx would be). It also looks really nice against wood furniture. Most of my devices just scream "Hey, I'm an electronic gadget" (even the iPad, as elegant looking as it is). The Kobo Aura HD in Espresso just looks natural (despite the plastic).

slightly OT rant:
That's another gripe I have with the popular readers in general. With most dedicated readers featuring at least 2GB (~1.5GB useable) storage and boasting about being able to hold 1,500 books or more, why is it that library management seems to be an afterthought on most of these devices? If not for Calibre, I shudder to think what managing books on these devices would be like. If free or inexpensive apps such as Stanza, Mantano and Marvin can implement good library management/organization, why can't Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Kobo?
