I know the Forma is attractive, and some people say the complains are bogus, but man, there are a lot of complaints about bad units. Even if you are lucky and not have any screen issues, even if the not-visible flicker doesn't bother your head, it's the build problems, the faulty power button, often weak turn buttons, and now there seems to be an occasional usb port issue. Even the positive reviews I read on Kobo, were usually positive after a replacement unit and accepting a few smaller issues.

So, I'm worried about getting the Forma, as much as I wanted it. And I don't like that Kobo charges you shipping both ways for any warranty issues (here that would be alot).

But, you are saying 7" is still too small?
I say 7" is too small for PDF. Watch the following video showing KOReader with a Kobo Aura One (7.8" screen). It's an old video, but it will give you a good idea of what KOReader can do with PDF on a Kobo.
