Well, I use the 4G on the aura HD, and I love
* to have a good reference library at hand wherever (a recent instance while reading Virginia Woolf's diary, and she comments on some lines by T.S. Eliot: I search my library from the book - a neat feature from kobo - and read the poem),
* and to be able to choose a book according to mood, tiredness level, a reference in another book etc. - everybody does it for music, why not for books?
I've determined I need some 0.3 G free (for the SQLite database to duplicate itself while working, plus a little extra), and I like having 0.7 G above that today to add and add and add. Let's be positive - I'm not a hoarder, I'm a collector (same thing with music, and pictures, and paper books).
And reading this thread, I think, yes there are bugs, some more annoying than others, but thanks to calibre and the plugins, and the help from the developers here and the users here and in a French forum, I have a wonderful little gizmo with so many advantages. Waiting for buses, appointments, friends? No problem. Bad eyes? A solution (within limits of course): as far as I know Kobo is the only one to allow for sideloaded fonts, and adjustments for the fonts, margins etc., and the visual quality of the HD (lighting and definition) is exceptional.
