Waiting on a Kobo Aura HD
I've been wanting an e-ink reader for many years. But my main reading material is in PDF format, so most of the offerings have not been ideal, both in terms of size and in terms of limited storage capacity. I saw a deal on a Kobo Aura HD, which seems decent for this use case. But I'm still waiting on it to be delivered from Canada.

Thanks for the welcome.

Kobo Aura HD arrived yesterday. It's rather nice. Looks very much like ink on paper, especially when under natural light.

Running it with Start Menu 8 & Koreader. Still having some troubles getting the Koreader gestures to work - perhaps that's just a limitation of this particular model of device?

I have to say that the Aura HD is not all that good for PDF. Get a iPad instead.
