I had a Kindle before and I agree, the software is much better.

That said, for my use, the Kobo works better for me. It is more open. You can patch it all you want, if you desire.

I use Calibre with 4 plugins. KePub Output, Kobo Touch Extended and Amazon Multiple Countries. The other one is for DRM issues. I don't like to be taken hostage in only one bookstore.

I also borrow books from my library and they are in ePub.

I manage my book collections by genre on the Kobo. So I have tags in Calibre.

I like the Clara HD because it's very light. Lighter than the Kindle. No light bleed on my unit.

PS : My wife had a problem with the zoom feature on her Kobo Aura. I disabled the 2 fingers swipe on the left side to adjust lighting. And maybe tap too.
