sure, eink looks way more like plain paper, but it's kind of "old tech" and limited in size. i have both, though, so i'm not at all against eink. i just grab whichever device i prefer on any given day. 90% of the time at home it's the 10" tablet, though...

I have a tablet, the Nook HD. Problem is that reading on it hurts my eyes (even after switching the background color to grey and turning the backlight down to 40%) and gives me bad headaches, so i've been using it mainly for web and video while my Sony has become my go to for reading. (I've got astigmatism that's been getting worse the past couple years).
The Kobo Aura H2O is my best choice then, i'll look into trying to find books stores around me but i might just get one off the kobo site. Thanks for helping. Does the kobo give you a book summary option when listing books on the reader? (Not in store but for what you already have?)
