Any ereader which can supply the simple functionality I outlined, reliably, is good.
So from the above perspective, the KA1 is just about perfect for me. The hardware is superb (so far  ). I switched from Kindle PW2 because of the larger screen on the KA1. The software is less stable/polished than the Kindle one but you can tweak and patch a ton of things on the Kobo. Thanks to this forum, I learned how to do it and now I've got my KA1 set up juuuust right. |
With about the same requirements of a reader as above, I'm also very happy with the One. Are there things that could have been done better? Undoubtedly. But most of those are a version 1 (think the natural light). And if nobody does it, nobody can make mistakes but also nobody can enjoy it and give feedback.

I only hightlight when I want to mark down a mistake (so I can correct it later). And if I have a book with many of those, I'll read it on my tablet and correct the mistake immediately. And if I want to make notes, I'll use either my phone (OneNote) or either of my two Note tablets (one windows, the other android). So, that notetaking and hightlighting isn't that important to me for my ereader.
