Eventually when I realised that I was becoming increasingly frustrated with my Kobo Glo - my firm taps were becoming vicious stabs and I was shouting very rude things at my Glo- I decided that it was time to delete this bible from my Glo and go with the Kindle version.

Final verdict: virtually unworkable on Kobo ereaders.  |
Hi!
My Kobo Aura HD is my first and only Kobo device. My ESV Study Bible is converted from a mobi version, so I have no idea how the official ePub works.
I used the KoboTouchExtended plugin to Calibre to upload the book to my Kobo, as it gives popup windows on some links and generally seems smoother to me. (I load all my sideloaded books onto a micro-SD card I've inserted).
My experience now, especially after the 1.4.0 version of the plugin, is that the ESV Study Bible works pretty well. I don't have to wait long for Table of Contents, clicking links etc.
The ESV study Bible works better than my New Spirit Filled Life NKJV Study Bible. That one also works, but is MUCH slower.
The only frustration is actually hitting the right link sometimes (instead of hitting the note beside it or just turn the page, I would think this applies to all touch screen readers). All in all, it works for me.
