Thanks!

As you probably know, you need the Patcher to reduce the footer to a more reasonable size. Also if you prefer a little bit of white space at the top there are 2 different ways of achieving that. One option using the calibre Kobo drivers and the other using GeoffR's special Patch which changes the top margin in proportion to the left/right margins set with the margin slider.
Yes, I would patch the footer to reduce it's size. Also, I would have to see how the text right at the top looks to decide what I wanted to do in that regard.

I am hoping that the local bookshops have the H2O when I get back from vacation early November. If not, I'll just order via Kobo. I know I'd like to have the H2O and take it on vacation with me, but I'd like to have enough time to get it setup how I wanted and to get used to it enough and to make sure it was working. Plus, by the time I get the H2O, there will be more case options available. I would not want to take it without a case. Sure, I could use it in house without a case, but not to travel.
