I have had and still sometimes have tons of problems with my H2O... It randomly fails to unmount properly from Calibre and does not register books loaded onto the device (does not search for new books, does not update the library). It freezes occasionally. It occasionally gets the database corrupted, forcing me to restore my content (and losing my notes and highlights in the process). Maybe this is specific to the Mac build of Calibre or some Mac-specific USB stuff but it certainly does not work as “advertised” here on the board, and never has (been using the H2O since 3.12.something). I have switched to "downloading" my Calibre books from Calibre server and that mostly solved all my problems, but this is far from a „just plug in and control everything“ kind of experience.
If you’re in for a no-frills-experience, either get a Kindle right away or only purchase from the Kobo store. It is a great device for reading but Calibre is, at least in my opinion, far from an ideal companion...
