A Kobo Sage and use the PW3 serial number for Download & Transfer.

The PW3 is pretty good, only spoiled by later GUIs. The only issues are the 6″ and amount of storage. PW4 is poorer, PW5 is slightly better. Hence recommending an 8″ native epub ereader. The PW3 will do for when the Sage is too big for a pocket.

Calibre to manage, and with Kobo: collections, title, subtitle, series, author, blurb, publisher info all easily set and viewed/searched.

I've two PW3, one still has a better older GUI.
No Reader should go in a pocket lest they get broken.

Jon, that's a quite crazy claim and irrelevant to the discussion. Obviously the PW3 might need a cheap ridged flip cover, depending on the kind of pocket.

A bit less than 1/2 the population don't carry bags, which can be inconvenient.

Likely the OP has had the PW3 for years unless got S/H.

It's more accurate then you think.

Also, what does shipping & handling have to do with anything?

S/H = Second hand.
S&H = Shipping and Handling.

I've been putting my K4NT (before I retired it), Oasis 2, and Oasis 3 in pockets for years without problem. Bothe Oases are larger than a PW3.

In this context, it's used incorrectly. There is no shorthand for second hand.

Why do you persist in thinking that you know everything? It has been proved many times over that you do not.

I'm not saying I know everything. But I do know that S/H is shipping & handling.

S&H is shipping and handling. SH is self-harm or second hand or social history or sacrifice hit or same here or a pagefull of other meanings.

Sadly there is no authoritative list that specifies a single interpretation so you have to learn to use context to understand what is meant.
