Well, considering that posts on forums tend to be more negative (if only because people vary rarely feel the need to point out something works fine ;-) ) I thought I'd post my negative feeling on the H20

And it is:

Damn my acid sweat for marking the bezel!

Apart from that, I think this is an awesome device. My wife occidentally scratched the screen on my Aura and bought me this H20 (considering I was lusting after one) as an early Xmas pressy.

Its bloody awesome.

Seriously, the bezel and the soft rubber feel is my only complaint. I know I have pretty acidic sweat (I play guitar and I am resigned to only a handful of brands because I can kill some sets in a day).

So I think a trip to Decalgirl will be on the cards ;-)

The screen is gorgeous. Absolutely spectacular clarity. The backlight is clear and consistent, and its great to be able to read in the bath without the paranoia of falling asleep while reading costing me a packet ;-)

And with the Aura, I think a screen protector will negate most of the issue so I will probably ask my wife does she want to swap her Glo for it. Its smaller and lighter and as she has spinal issues she may find it easier...

But I just wanted to add a little positivity. Kobo, this is great!
