Have you ever tried reading in landscape mode? A lot of the time I find it more comfortable and readable. The only thing is that you lose the "page press" buttons.
I tried reading the Aura One in bed last night. I felt it would have been better in landscape mode, but I'll have to wait until I get Koreader installed before I can do that. I felt that my eyes would have preferred the longer journey from left to right, instead of the large top to bottom movement. I was also disappointed by the color of the screen. The top was a nice yellowish color, like old paper. But at the bottom it was sort of green. I found it really distracting. In the end I just set it to the blue-ish light setting, which is not the warm tone I want while going to bed, but at least it is consistent. That is the sort of thing I think Kobo will probably fix in later versions of the Aura One, and I'll wish I had waited before buying mine.

I think if everyone who has this or the green blobs problem insists on a replacement Kobo will learn to beef up the quality control. I have been delighted by my A1 and it's a real shame if its reputation is damaged by these rogue units.
