Pocket seems really great - the only downside is that some pages just refuses to show up on my Aura HD, like this one:
http://sevencamels.blogspot.co.il/20...makes.html?m=1
(Strangely, the URL worked once, but then I deleted it and Pocketed it again, and then it no longer showed up on Kobo)
I also tried saving this tread to Pocket, but it didn't work -- apparently, it is possible to save forum messages to Pocket, but it refuses to display them on Kobo, since it's not an "article".

One thing I don't like is that Pocket refuses to acknowledge when it has a problem. The Kobo just hides the articles it is unable to display, without admitting that the article couldn't be shown. Nobody likes seeing error messages - but still, everyone would very much like to know when there had been an error. Hiding the negative information is not a good idea.

It worries me slightly that I don't know how getpocket.com intends to make money on their product. However, I really like that its possible to export the actual content of ones account to an open format (.html). It is a brave choice from the developers.

All in all, the Pocket integration is a revolution, albeit slightly flawed.
