Thanks everyone. My Kindle PaperwhIte is front lit, the one I had previously wasn't lit(?) but if I remember right it did have some way...? Maybe not but certainly I never had any trouble seeing the words in reasonable room lighting. I used it primarily while lying in bed. I can't do that with the Kobo Mini, and even in broad daylight it's an effort.

Yes, the bold setting helps up to a point, but not enough.

It's a real shame, I'd otherwise love the Mini - if I could read on it! Well, eBay here we come.
