I simply cannot recommend the KT until the fw stabilizes in a useable state.

I ended up with the widespread db corruption problem prior to 1.9.10 and somehow going to 1.9.11 something got silently corrupted which required a factory reset, and re-upgrade, so I just cannot recommend Kobo products to anyone like grandma, i.e. low/no technical skills and low tolerance for defects. As it is I'm not even happy with the situation, as these types of problems should be squashed before a fw ships, if this were a more expensive item it'd've long since gone back.
