When I tried it on a comic (and I only had it for a few hours before it went back so I may well have missed something) I got terrible ghosting on it. Were you able to control the ghosting better than I was? Or maybe it was not so bad for you. Anyway, congrats on it and enjoy! I am personally still trying to source the Inkpad Color. That may prove hopeless <G>. Well maybe color eink readers are like the three or four COVID vaccines. The best one is the one you can get!
It will take me a while of playing with it until I can make any definitive judgment on this device. However, I know enough already that I will not be returning it. It suits my needs as it currently is and I can live with its idiosyncrasies, although I do hope that they will fix some of those idiosyncrasies in future software updates.

As for the Kindle app, I doubt that I will be installing that as I only have one Kindle book which I have already converted to epub.

I do have some manga in pdf and jpeg formats. Mostly scanned by myself. So I don't really foresee downloading any manga apps. I like manga, but I am not that into them to look into dedicated apps... at least not yet. However, my initial impression is that if I were primarily interested in manga, I would want a larger colour eink device. I think a 10.3" device would probably be more ideal for such purposes. But, for most people interested in manga, I think that a regular tablet would probably be more suitable and certainly cheaper.
