The past few years, my book reading practice has been shamefully lacking. I love books, but have found paperbooks to be cumbersome and somewhat tiring, and my giant 6.4" Xperia Z Ultra, while a great LCD display, is far from ideal for book reading, especially since I'm easily distracted by notifications and apps. Of course, reading it in bed also destroys melatonin levels, and it's just impossible to use outdoors.
Seeing my friend's Paperwhite 2 convinced me that an e-reader is the way to go. After reading feedback from you lovely folks and considering its big, clear screen, its waterproofness, and the open nature of Kobo readers, I decided on the H2O - and boy, am I in love, too!
An incurable tinkerer, I'd installed KSM, Koreader and the pbchess package before even opening a book, and I'm just thrilled with its capabilities now, both in hardware and software. Books are a joy to behold on this device! I can tell this device will help me enjoy reading for years to come, and I'd like to thank Kobo and this community for that!
