I picked up a Forma from my local Walmart last night. I have always preferred the paper-like screen of the Kobo H20 to my Oasis and the Forma is no exception. I was able to successfully apply the 4.11.11911 patches I was most interested in (especially the line height patches) and they work very well (thanks to those responsible). I can also see a streak (1/8 of an inch or so) down the entire right side of the screen. It is consistent, muted but still slightly brighter than the rest of the screen. Noticeable if I stare at it. My margins are set so that text does not extend into that area and I find it becomes rather imperceptible while reading. Not a big deal for me. All in all, I like the Forma very much (especially the large screen) and my initial impression is that it will quickly become my favorite e-reader.
