As I said, I would very much like to get a Kobo one day (once funds allow and I can find a way to explain to my spouse why I need yet another ereading device). But one thing I've noticed while perusing the Kobo forum is there seems to be a lot of patching and tweaking and customizing going on. It's not clear to me how much of it is because MobileRead members like to tweak and customize their reading experience, and how much is necessary. If the patches and hacks weren't available, would Kobo users still be happy with their readers?

If the patches and hacks weren't available, then you'd have a kindle. Just sayin'.
