I don't regret buying the Nook. But I knew what I was getting and that I'd have to jump through various hoops (font embedding, changing base font size in Calibre etc) to get the reading experience I wanted. For a person coming from Kobo the Nook software may well be disappointing.
Increasingly I think I may need to give one a more serious go.

I’m not very picky on the custom aspects but, as you can probably tell, I simply want the hardware to be great, ergonomic and the light/screen needs to be awesome (light on or off).

I take it the issues from the past with the smaller GlowLight 3 aren’t there on the Plus? (Keep reading about all sorts of software niggles/sideloaded content problems)

I see you have an Oasis 3. Where’s that on your list of preference/quality/etc?
