My first Kobo was the AuraHD, it was not my first ereader though. I do not like the database approach to book management vs. a file manager approach. I do not like the "Rewards" and other marketing efforts. I do not like the data gathering done for both Kobo and Google Analitics.
I DO like that, at least originally, much of the software was implemented in human readable scripting language. I DO like that they came out with the highest resolution ereader available. Another thing I DO like is that I need not depend on the Kobo supplied User Interface or their reading software. Thanks to the folks at Github, a number of whom post here. Plus a few others posting here who are independent of the Koreader Github project.
From my point of view, the near perfection of the Kobo AuraHD (for my use), is not totally, perhaps not even largely, something to credit Kobo with.
Luck;
Ken
