Ah, thanks for that, my mind just read them as one and the same, which of course they're not. I've been using the mod, which I will happily keep using (and never confuse it with a patch again).

I often kill time waiting to head to appointments and will read outside nearby instead of in a stuffy office. I need to constantly watch the time in that case. The displayed time only changes when you flip a page, which is absolutely good enough for my use (and I would think for others, who sits on one page for more than a minute or so?). I was spoiled from my first Sony 350 reader, it had that feature and was one of the biggest things I missed on the Kobo readers.

Just seriously, I use it a lot in my Onyx Boox when I read at night, without any press in the screen (it shows continuously, refreshing after a page turn). |
That's me, too... if my eyes don't cross over the displayed time, it can be 20 minutes later that I might remember to check it again. It's all how engrossed you are within the book at the time. Plus it's just annoying to have to keep interrupting your reading to bring up the menu to check the time every page or so.
