I do agree that that Kobo seems to have figured out the lighted screen better (and earlier) than did Kindle.

Fair enough. I was thinking of Kobo's UI and its more open approach to customizing the reading experience (fonts, margins, etc). Possibly the Kindle is more stable because it so completely locks down its devices to any form of customization. Hopefully Kobo will soon release a device with the same screen as the Voyage, but with the superior Kobo lighting tech and with the existing Kobo viewing options. Buttons would be nice too
But Kobo customer support really does suck. Like Sony used to be.
