This thing stands a serious chance of being bought by me. I've been eyeing the Kobo readers for some time because of the extensive font options, but didn't buy one because of the reports of instability of the firmware and problems with rendering books. I wasn't ready to trade stability for more options.
Now, however, this reader provides so much more than the KPW1 I still use:
7.8 inch vs. 6 inch
Selectable front light color temparture
WAY more font options and spacing options
Granted, the Kobo may have some drawbacks (dictionaries not as good, but more languages available, weird Kobo-type KEPUB), but this device makes it hard to keep refusing to try a Kobo.
If I can get a cover for it that I like, I'll probably order it somewhere down the road. I'm not going to preorder it, and not buy it at Kobo itself, for that matter.
