The Kindle is fast and now I can open epubs with it...

PS: if you install ZenOS or SimpleUI on your Pocketbook you can easily turn your WLAN on or off...

There are Koreader plugins for PocketBooks that let you set sleep, power-off and start-up screens.
Yep, I vibe-coded that plugin.

Wifi and power off settings can be accessed at any time (including whilst in Koreader) by holding the home button to launch the Task Manager.
And I just vibe coded that lets you set that in KOReader, at least for the power off and sleep settings. For the WiFi settings, I found a repo with some userpatch scripts.

You can do this stuff, but not out of the box. And the sleep screen saver didn't have an option at all till I vibe-coded something.

Yes, on a Pocketbook Versa Pro Color with KOreader with the plugin "SimpleUI" or "ZenOS".
