The Kobo H2O2 is 207 grams so I've started looked at the Forma again (having initially decided to wait).
Which is why I need to try out both before deciding. Roughly the same weight in a smaller form factor may well be better for me as there's less (for want of a better term) angular momentum.

We'll see - I may end up sticking with my Icarus for the time being and taking on the bloke's old iPad (the SIM connection is borked and he's been given a voucher to get a replacement whereas I use data via my iPhone).
