There are several features that will be decisive:

- an "Advanced settings" menu that allows to enable the existing patches without using a PC to patch (this will interest the not-geek users). This will make kobo a unique device
- possibility to choose a custom screensaver in both sleeping and turned off modes
- Easier extraction of the micro sd card. All with an official software that restores a micro sd. This will make even a compleately bricked device softwarely undestroyable
- several highlight styles and fast highlighting
- handle well the .docx format. (if possible like a kepub)
- handle pretty fast the pdf
- function that automatically reads the custom folders in the device and manages them in collections
- a firmware with the touch calibration
- allow search on extra dictionaries without pacth the ereader (with custom order of search)
- highly customizable popup windows of the dictionary

- a swift system of bookmarks like kindle or better
- overlay with a rubber-plastic layer (about 1 mm thick) the four corners of the device, so to create a tough and original cover

- multi-core processor
- 2 GB RAM
