How I read on the kobo (and PW one and two, and nook glowlight) With their issues, I don't know.
I was with this forum on the PW one and two issues - but not on this.
I'm very glad spotlighting and blotchiness are gone.
It's like the voyage got rid of the two biggest annoyances all eink readers suffered from and still get flak..

I actually bought a Glo yesterday, I paid £70 for it. Yes it's two year old tech, and yes the screen isn't as sharp as the Voyage is supossed to be but I paid £70 for it (and it is new), vs the £169 Amazon want for a Voyage. For what I need it for its perfect. I would have been very happy to have a Voyage, I pre ordered it back in September but after all the issues on here and having been through the PW1 debacle I decided not to bother. I'll wait a year and see if they bring out a 'new and improved' Voyage next year.
For a premium price I don't feel it's too much to be sure of what I'm getting and to not have to play the will I won't I get a decent one game.
