PocketBooks are my favorite eReaders. Mostly because I like the way they render fonts and format pages. And (because they turn completely off) battery life is very good. You can't make fonts bolder but I get around that by using a font (Constantia) that is about the perfect "boldness" for me. Also PocketBooks are very open with multiple formats and it has ADE built in, which allows you skip ADE on your computer. (I can order books directly on my PocketBook from places like eBooks.com).

I can't speak directly about the large screen PocketBooks however. And, as cellaris mentions, the InkPad X Pro is an Android based PocketBook (not the standard Linux firmware) so it probably works more like the Android app then most of the PocketBook models.
