PinkET: may I suggest turning rant mode off before posting your opinion. Some of the points are bordering on incoherent because the description are wandering all over the place.

A couple of things to note though. Much of the criticism is focussed on the "Extras". Kobo notes, on the extras screen, "that they're not officially supported by Kobo." I enjoy these games on the commute and wish that they were better, but Kobo does make it clear that they are not a core feature of the device (and presumably do not receive much TLC).

As for the UI, I agree that it isn't perfect. I disagree with the bit about anyone being able to design one that makes "everybody happy if not drool." Kobo has gone through several designs on their eink based readers. There's always a group who's happy with the changes, another group who hates the changes, and a bunch who don't really care. Stuff like that is really in the domain of opinion: noone's really right and noone's really wrong. I, for one, like the new tiles interface. I can also understand why some people don't like the tiles interface. A large part of the difference is because of how individuals use the device.

Please understand: no mater how right you think you are, you are just as wrong as the rest of us.
