JSWolf has a reputation here for *not liking* Kindles.

So take what he says with a grain of salt -- for example, as shalym said above, you can find plenty of people who aren't so happy with the Kobo, usually because of arcane bugs.

So, as always: if you can get your hand on one in person to try it, trust that instead of anything we might be saying

the E-Ink Carta is the best option available currently (I don't think they will made E-ink PRISM screens in a short time)

I have Xperia ZR for all my outdoor needs and I need eReader for reading only, I am not interested in any other feature and my only concern that it will display RTL text and fonts (Arabic) properly

I don't the Carta screen is much of an improvement from the previous generation of pearl screens. It might not even be noticeable. But the new Voyage screen is noticeably better than pearl.

It looks like the new kobo will have the Voyage screen. It will probably have a better light, and it will accept custom fonts. Sadly, the shipping issue remains for you. And if it it dead on arrival you will have a problem.
