If someone had a gun to your head? - Page 5

Kobo Aura HD, as there have been too many reports of bad PW2's for my taste, which has given me a strong sense of Deja Vu, reminding me of the Great Paperwhite Calamity of 2012! Anyway, I have owned a Kobo Glo in the past, and thought its was a better reader with better lighting, and better options like more adjustable margins, font weight/sharpness and better line spacing.

Starting to sound like you can't go wrong either way, really.

In those circumstances? Whichever the crazed lunatic wanted me to choose. :-)

Ok.. for what it is worth from a novice..I just bought a KPW2 and the Kobo Aura HD.. comparing them side by side for reading they are almost equal.. the Kobo is a little larger and has a perfect screen.. the KPW2 is great as well.. better (50%) than my old KPW1 for sure.. the Kobo back is funky with that slight triangular back.. which bothers me.. both have a lot of nice features.. the Kobo font selections are better, as well as font weight and margins.. for putting it my sport coat pocket.. KPW2 wins.. many other pros and cons as well for both.. but if "someone had a gun to my head" I would tell them to shoot me because I can't decide at this moment.. LOL .. both are great.. pick your poison..

Good to see you're having fun with the decision.

Going through everyday life must be terribly difficult if one needs to have those extremes imposed on them in order to make a decision.

Looks like you will have to keep both readers
