That is a really nice looking and sounding device. Happy for those that wanted something bigger. Looking at the videos, I would not be able to hold it and not drop it out of my hand. Bezel would be too small, would be a 2 hander.
I do like the light feature though with the color warmth changing, that is really neat. Maybe that is something they can make a kindle with in the future.
I always wondered about the Kobo's, but then I read all the threads here about all the tweaking, installing this and that, this plugin for this and that, I always thought of them as not being for someone like me in any case as I do not mess with any of those things.
Its also very tough to switch to a completely different system when one has books in one format since 2008 that I can access at my fingertips. I don't like downloading everything on my readers, so no matter how good those devices are, I wouldn't or couldn't be switching for those reasons. But its nice to see competition still in the e-ink area.
I do like the overdrive integration, that is neat. I guess if Kobo ever decides to drop kindle support from the libraries as they own it now, I might have to get one just to be able to read library books. I hope that never happens, but one never knows. As regular sized one though, not a super sized.
