I bought an Aura for $50 from Ebay that's in like-new condition. A few days after getting it I bought another one. I like it because it's the only ereader that fits comfortably in my pants pocket when I'm out running around. If I only expect to have a few minutes to read here and there my phone is fine but if I think I'll have some real reading time I need an ereader and the Aura is perfect for that.

At first there was nothing about the newly acquired Kobo that seemed other than new and perfect. Last night the power switch has gotten balky. It's still working okay but I'm worried about how long it'll work. Considering the price I've decided not to try to return it even though it's within the return period. I can keep it in a case so I'll rarely need the power switch. It's a risk but I've decided to take it. When I ordered my second one he had 7 left so I doubt I can get a replacement, just a refund, and I don't want to give it up.

Other than that one problem this thing is excellent. It's a nicer device than my old Aura, which I bought shortly after they came out. I'm glad I got it.
