Finally I have transferred all my library from Calibre to the H2O and everything is fine. Happy with the speed of the device.

I have a Kindle PW from June 2013 and this device is still going strong, whereas my H2O was only 8 months old before it died on me. I take good care of my devices and have not dropped once till now. I also use good quality covers for the ereaders.

After this experience and going through many posts on mobileread forum, I find it strange that so many members request for the image of Kobo series of e-readers. Is it because many member's device's internal microSD cards are failing? How many persons are copying back the image on original microSD cards or replacing with new ones.

Is there a pattern emerging?

Compared to the on-board memory and microSD cards, the on-board memory seems to be good quality and have long life.

I appreciate if members throw some light on this issue...
