I have both the PW3 and the Glo HD on hand at the minute and I was just wondering if you fine informed people would be willing to answer a few questions, as I'm getting nit picky about which one to keep!

I generally prefer the sleeker feel and (although there's not much in it), the glow coming from the PW3. But I'm very interested in Koboreader and any other 3rd party systems that might improve the practical reading experience.

*Is there anyway to change the default front cover of the book when in sleep mode with Kobo vanilla or Koreader/Coolreader etc?
*Does Koreader make the table of contents lettering darker on the Kobo Glo Hd? As it was very dark on the pw3 but lighter on the Glo HD.
*I was able to change the line justification with Calibre on my PW3 but is it possible (heard it is but need a confirmation) to change the font beyond the PW's defaults if you embed it into the file with Calibre? I tried a quick test of this earlier without positive results.
*The pdf experience on the PW3 way out did the Kobo vanilla variant, but I'm guessing the Koreader is a dream to run pdf's on after seeing a short demonstration video. Can anybody verify this or give more details.

Thanks!
