I don't use the Kobo app or any other store app on my Nexus (or any other device). I don't like any of them. I do buy books from Kobo but I disinfect and side load them.

And I totally agree that Kobo eink readers are superior to Kindles. I returned my PW2. I am done with them. My Kobo does what I want it to, no hacking needed. Definitely the best I've ever used. I haven't had an opportunity to compare an Aura HD to anything, but I can say that the text is sharper on my Nexus, than on my Glo. I usually only realize it when I switch from one to the other, or hold them side by side.

m_bisson, if I saw an Aura HD for $90, you better believe I would get one. I wouldn't be able to resist, for that price.

CaffeBreak, the PW2 update is what caused me to return mine. Even though three months had passed since I bought it, they returned every penny of what I spent. So you might want to contact them.
