I like the idea of magnets. Would love to see future Kobo sleep covers using magnets!

The sleep covers of today are usually way too hard to remove (insert is fine).

I usually read with the sleep cover attached. But while reading in our pool/swip spa, I always struggle with removing the sleep cover (that would not be happy to be in water).

The Sage sleep cover IS magnetic - very strongly so.

My Sage (without a cover) constantly picks up my cats' nail clippers. It seems really fond of them.

Clearly a sign - you're supposed to write the next addition to the "Cat Who..." series

Yeah, sure. I couldn't write a two-page essay unless someone holds a gun to my head. At least that's the excuse I keep telling myself. What my cats think of the matter, I refrain from asking. Just in case.

Mine is pretty much the same too. When I opened the device for the first time I was like, ‘gross’, but it is truly not so distracting while I’m reading. Which is strange, as I am very sensitive to these things. Not sending mine back, I’m keeping it.

I should say this is my first Kobo as I am a forever Kindle user. One thing I don't like is you can't enlarge illustrations. On a Kindle, on virtually any illustration on any source of book, you can long press the picture and a magnifying glass icon pops up, hit it and the picture goes full screen. I miss that feature. But otherwise it's a fantastic ereader. I mostly read library books these days so a Sage made sense. And wow, Pocket and Dropbox are fantastic.

I think you can double-tap on an image in a kepub to enlarge it to full screen.

double tapping an image in kepub opens the image viewer so you can zoom to what ever level you want, rotate, fit to height, or width etc.
