Thanks for the in depth review. I'm very intrigued by the h2o. Since amazon has really clamped down on jailbreaking, my next e-reader will unlikely be a kindle as I absolutely need custom font and more font size and spacing options. That is much more important to me than the ecosystem. After all, I spend a lot more time reading books than getting them onto my device.
What gives me pause is how much bulk is added for that extra 0.8" (which I like). There is no place around here where I can go try it out. But it's nice to know I have an alternative should my jailbroken PW2 breaks.
Re calibre. Yeah it's not great to look at. It's pretty CPU intensive when converting books or running recipes. But it's great nevertheless because there is nothing else like it.

Thanks, Barty! And great point about the importance of the ecosystem. As a pure reading experience I think you'll be very happy with the H2O...I know I am.
While the size is noticeably larger than the Kindles, someone else pointed out that both are still a lot less bulky than an actual book, so with that in mind it's probably something you'll be able to get used to quickly.
