YEp, this let my colleagues make fun of me today! Checking every thirty minutes!!!

So finally it's here, at home, with a first book in. First startup, configuration and update.

Few minutes to discover it, then go! Quite happy, surprised by the grain of the screen when you touch it, but nice. I liked the fact that you can get rid of all the "fun" things from Kobo, and let it be what it is supposed to be, a reader.

For now, I've just added a book in epub in the root directory, and modified the affiliate from Fnac to Kobo.

The whole body in rubber is really good, and the button for the light on/off is a real advantage versus the Odyssey HD Frontlight.

So, I'd better be reading now. Might let you know my thoughts in a few days, after I have played with it.

THanks again all for your answers and clues, that helped me doing this choice.
