Hey, I am always happy to hear of a good ereader. Especially if improvements for synopsis exist.

Been a while since I checked out any new ones, and apart from the Kobo that would fit in my pocket a few years back, they did not impress me. But I imagine they have improved a lot since then.

I have been holding out for a color E-Ink as my next ereader purchase, but as that seems unlikely now, I am almost at the point of considering other options.

I like both my Kindles, but they aren't too great battery wise, with my 10" Samsung Tablet being far superior in that regard. So I could do with an ereader with much improved battery life. The Samsung stays charged for months on end, when not being used, unlike the Kindles which tend to die within a month. I'd also like larger storage, as I am well over 2,500 Kindle ebooks now, and I like being independent of the web and the PC.

While I have devices linked to the Amazon store, I would still like an ereader that supports Kindle formats, for side-loading, but have no idea if any device does aside from a Kindle ereader or a Tablet with the Kindle App.

Sure I could convert to EPUB, and I do. But I would prefer to use the original cleansed version of the Kindle ebooks I buy. Currently I only use the unclean versions, on a Kindle.
