My comfort lighting works great.

Now the auto-adjust lighting, on the other hand, not so much. I turned off the auto-adjust feature and manually increase/decrease the lighting as needed.

Highlighting is a definite weakness in epubs. I read it is a lot better in kepubs, but I have few of those as most of my reading is through Overdrive.

I find it hard to get the exact phrase I want when it involves a large body of text. Also, epub does not support crossing pages, but I read kepub does.

I was a four-year user of various Kindles -- Kindle Keyboard, Touch, Paperwhite, and Voyage. I moved over to the KA1 in January, and I really enjoy the larger screen size, increased font options, and the comfort light. I also found my library selections increased by a small amount as there were a few books that weren't available in mobi format.
