Having become extremely frustrated with a Kobo that seems to be gradually deteriorating, I have to consider some other device. The Boox line seems very full-featured albeit at noticeably higher prices.

So far the Boox reviews I've seen spend a lot of time on the sketching and note-taking features, the pen, the UI, sundry bells and whistles, and so forth. I have yet to find a review that focuses mostly (or only) on the nuts-’n’-bolts of using a Boox device as an e-reader.

If there's someone here who uses it heavily for e-reading and has experience with various e-reader apps, I'd love to talk with you about that. (I'll skip the questions for now...need to see first if anyone wants to talk about it. :-)
