Hi

I have been quite critic these last weeks, mainly about what I perceived to be failed firmware updates beginning with 2.5.2. I must say that Kobo seems to have a devious knack for frustrating people.

But, I feel reasonably happy now with 2.8.1. My most important grudge (top-margin for reading) is really gone. Overall process is snappier. Embedded font problems are receding into oblivion.

Of course the long paragraph bug is still here, some taps are cumbersome (light settings), tiles are ugly and some of them are really useless for me but this time, I feel we moved a little upwards and honesty compels me to say it. I can read pleasantly (mind... mostly without endnotes).
