Absolutely. It's simple and far safer than trying to root the T2 and then run Coolreader, which is not a good app, even if Coolreader runs on the T2.


There are ereaders I've used and between 5 and 10 years the battery dies. Eventually the ereader is so old that the replacement batteries (actually an LiPoly cell) are really old and you might get 3 months to a year. LiPoly cells wear out with age, elevated temperature and total number of cycles.

The T2 is a nice ereader, but now ancient, maybe the best 6″ Sony based on Android. Any Kobo after the Kobo Touch and Mini is better, though the older ones are now having battery issues. I put a 32 G SD card in the T2.

I think the Kobo Aura HD H20 might be the oldest worth getting as has recent FW support and there are still compatible LiPoly cells being made (rather than old stock that will die) that suit it. It also takes a 32 G SD card, though less securely than the Sony T2 if the rubber sealed hatch opens.
