Fixed that for you. Kobo's are much better if you're format agnostic (i.e., don't need the Kindle file format, which in any event can be converted to epub by calibre).
In my opinion the problem is that Android and the apps don't know about grayscale displays so using it for an e-reader is a shotgun marriage, at best. For example, one of the ebook readers I installed from the Play store uses a light brown background (instead of white) which makes reading text with it crap on e-ink. If it could query android and find out that it's on an e-ink device it could have used a white background. I don't remember if I ever got it working reasonably because its menus and UI were also using colors that didn't work well on the grayscale e-ink.
