Trying to be HELPFUL.

Is the first gen the ONLY Libra called H20?

If so, feel free to CLARIFY that.

Frankly, I'm a Libra owner and -I- dont know the best way to differentiate the two. For all I know the second one could be called H20 as well. I dont see why not, considering its probably also waterproof.

Personally I'm not someone who feels they have to remember someone's user name and hold a grudge. I have a life.
Have I commented on this before to you? Not to my knowledge. But no, I am not harassing you. I commented because for some reason you chose to "clarify" the name of a device with a name that does not exist. While you claim to be trying to be helpful, the fact that you state above that you do not actually know what the devices are makes this questionable. You have claiming to make it clear you are referring "to the first gen Kobo" but then you ask me to clear that up. How is you using terms you do not understand helpful?

But, Kobo does not do "generations" like Amazon. Kobo name each of their devices and there is not necessarily anything that links them. If you want to understand this, look at all the different "Aura"s. There are three different screen sizes, at least three resolutions, some are waterproof, some not, some have flush screens, some don't, some use IR touch and some capacitive. And if Kobo did "generations", the "first gen" device would be the "Kobo eReader" or something like that.

As to the "Libra", there have so far been two Kobo devices whose name starts with "Libra". The are call the "Libra H2O" and the "Libra 2". There has been no device called the "Libra 1". Nowhere, except in some posts here, will you find that designation. Calling the "Libra H2O" by the name "Libra 1" does not improve understanding in any way. Making up names for these devices only confuses things.

Now, if you don't know which device you have, then look at it. Kobo prints the name on the edge somewhere. Usually on the edge with the USB port. Or you could open the settings on the device. The last option will tell you what device you have. For your current one, it should say "About Kobo Libra H2O". If we use the correct name, everyone will know what we are all talking about and not have to do some mapping between invented names.
