Thank you. I've been off MR for awhile so I'm not sure which devices you're speaking of, but I'll do a little digging in the device forums.

I knew about the Rakuten/Overdrive purchase, but didn't see anything on Kobo's site to indicate wireless Overdrive. Thanks for the confirmation.

Thank you for the heads up. I checked and the PW2 is still on 5.7.3, so I'll apply 5.7.4 manually tonight and see if that helps.
I've had the PW2 for 2 years this month, and the Oasis announcement gave me new device itch, but I wouldn't mind getting a little more time out of it and waiting for something better later.
I still don't understand why Amazon puts minimal effort into book organization/fonts/layout, but their data must give them reasons. Or Jeff Bezos doesn't need anymore than purchasing Goodreads brought, so he doesn't care.
