Same here. My main grumble is the poorly responsive and blurring capacitive layer (why? other manufacturers manage better): in a perfect world, it would have the quality and responsiveness of my glo HD, but I love the bigger real estate. And I like the freedom to change the light color - reading at night is much more comfortable.

Compared to the H2O, the real estate difference seems not that important on paper, but it means I can now read PDFs (not all) that I couldn't before, and that don't exist as epubs. It much improves reading kepubs (my favored format) with tables and graphs too, and poetry looks better.

Even with "plain" kepubs the page size is better, and I find myself taking it everywhere, when I had thought before I'd take my glo HD for everyday transit.

I should say that I like header and footer, and a fair margin on my books.
