Ask your local library's privacy officer about the privacy issues -- they don't like handing any information about patrons over without a court order.

The H2O you would be buying now would be a H2O v2 (aka H2O2 or the Peroxide ) which is a replacement for the original H20. I've used one a couple of times and it was very nice. As for the Forma? I liked it enough to buy one. Sadly, I only owned it for a couple of hours before my wife "borrowed" it so I'm back to my Aura One as my main ereader with a Clara HD for travel since it fits in a jacket pocket.
What's the difference between going to Amazon's site to download the book and going to Kobo's site to download the books? Or doesn't the Overdrive integration work in Canada? I could have sworn it did?
