2 minutes, good.
But Calibre(me) messed up collections, I wish it would have better instructions... So I have to do it all over again...

Оf course. It is so much easier to say, in essence, go away, rather than agree that a feature could greatly improve the performance of the device. There are many factors that make or break the decision to buy a device. For Kobo Aura HD- screen resolution and unusual bigger screen. Against Kobo Aura HD - poor software design, poor customer service. For avid readers both important. To how many people are you saying that- Kobo is not for you?

Well, just having a file manager with unicode support would help tremendously, no need to mass transliterate anything or struggle with Calibre settings.

Exactly. I've been reading ebooks for a long time now and it is very frustrating to see how poorly software is thought out and performs on a new device, how obvious features are ignored, it poses a question- does Kobo want a bigger share of ereader market or just trying to get on the band wagon? Because instead of "Kobo is not for you", they should be saying - thank you to all those who paid premium for their readers, when there are plenty to choose from.
