With the 6.8-7.8 inch readers, Kobo has something that Amazon does not, and that is a *very* good reason to look at them.

I don't have any header (I do have a footer, because I want that), and I didn't have to put any hacks in. One reason I didn't like the kindle was that I couldn't turn off the header... And the footer on my One is not large either, but I think maybe max two lines high? (you need some room beneath the last line of the page and the footer text...)

Oh right, some people can actually borrow ebooks from libraries... I completely forgot about that!
