The ideal was great, but they have not been able to deliver a simple ereader to display reliably a epub without font problems or give decent documentation on there product and they have problems with the product such as battery indicator and screen freeze and then to indicate there were not be a firmware update for some time is troublesome.
But I do thank them because i believe they have shown there is a large market for a 6 inch eink simple display for $150 and after they have arrive in the USA sony or the makers of nook will come out with a reliable 6 inch eink simple display for $150 and yes I live in the show me state of Missouri USA and have been following the KOBO before it became available in Canada .
