Not saying you shouldn't buy one, I, after all bought two  Only excuse for the second is I am a gadget freak. Probably I would again override my better judgement and buy another if it was innovative again hardware wise. Kobo does seem to make good hardware, and probably that is where they are putting all of their development money, to the detriment of their software development staff.
My feeling is that the hardware is marginally better than the competitions, but the software is eons behind. They sort numeric values as alphabetical, the books can open in random places, and the faster processor is bogged down by programming practices that haven't been seen on a commercially sold device since the early 80s

I think you might have misunderstood me. I want to see the debate. But when it gets to be personal and sniping, the information flow grinds to a halt.
Thank you for the information you have given me. That is the kind that I need to make an informed buying decision. I am trying to decide whether to get the Aura or wait to see what Sony and Amazon do. Heck, I might get both.
That's why I am here. So, please, continue to give out good information pro or con. I just wish it could just stay in that vein.
