I will not discuss this again here since it has been discussed ad nauseam already, but it was a mighty disappointment for me.

I am now reading during the day on a Kobo Mini, and in the evening I am back on my KPW (with Duokan), which I am really happy now not to have given away when I bought the Aura, and quite happy so far.

Yes, I thank Kobo for reducing the top margin back to the size of fw 2.5.1. and earlier. But… with fw 2.8.1 it isn't possible anymore to adjust (hack) the bottom footer. This bottom footer is still huge. I little smaller won't harm anyone. The "details" were discussed extensively with fw. 2.5.2 and I don't want it to reproduce it here, but it is the reason why I canceled my pre ordered Aura HD.
