No matter how good an e-reader is on paper, it needs to support many types of digital books to actually be useful. Both the Kindle Paperwhite and Kobo Clara HD support Epub 3, MOBI, and PDF books, which is great, but then things get tricky.
Apparently Kindles can now read Epub3 books! Yay! Oh wait...

I hate it when technology reviewers don't actually understand what they are writing about. I personally prefer Kindles, and REALLY would like them to support Epub, but when I read FUD like this I get mad even when "my" side is the "beneficiary."
What a moron! I have zero patience with this kind of crap. I mean, really. Have you ever even SEEN an ereader? Do you have any idea at all about ecosystems? Sheesh. (Oh, and by the way, his basic premise is wrong too!)
