Oh no!!! I'm beginning to get seriously worried about my sensory faculties. Not only does my Forma have flickering that I can't see but now, apparently, it's also got a high-pitched whine I can't hear!
My plans to video myself page-turning every book in slow-mo so that I can subsequently read it back via Youtube have been dashed.
Similarly, I've abandoned all hope of reading my books with my ear pressed to the back of the device, due to a total lack of eyes-on-stalks DNA in my half of the family.
I'd be almost inconsolable were it not for the fact that Kobo provides me with a device (
several, in fact) with excellent flexibility (
thank you, Kobo patch gurus) and book organisation (
thank you, calibre gurus). As for enhanced typography, well that's been standard for at least 5 years.
If you feel that Amazon and Nook are regularly producing lighted devices and firmware upgrades that no-one at MobileRead has found fault with, then I suggest you're not looking hard enough
