on the Aura HD I have to press carefully in 3 consecutive locations, then expand it - which is much slower and more error prone. is that because the e-ink screens cannot overlay windows ?
The Kobo Arc family of tablets run Android, the Kobo eInk ereaders run Linux. If you look in the Developer's Corner, you will find some information on running Android on the Kobo eInk readers though I personally found it of very limited use running on a Glo.
