The Tolino is also supposed to work with MLOL for borrowing books directly. Whether the screen would be any better than the Forma, I can't say. I'm guessing both devices are made int he same factory. Also, I don't think it works as well with Calibre collections and the interface is definitely more "sparse" than the Kobo. Though, to me, "sparse" equals clean and simple.

I saw it, and the software Tolino intrigues me since is based on Android and you can hack it if you want, but Epos 2 is not selled in Italy (so as to not compete with Kobo perhaps), it can be imported from Germany but in that case obviously in the event of an issue there is no guarantee (and it is probable that Epos 2 and Forma have the same problem).
It also costs € 50 more.
