Haven't seen it mentioned yet, so apologies if I missed it. Looks like the Elipsa is Kobo's entry into the USB-C world for data transfer and charging.

Why would you need to put a A4 or letter sized PDF in landscape on a 10.3" screen? I think most people would find that comfortable to read in portrait with no zooming. Most LCD tablets are the same size for the same reason. |

Before you attack, you should inform yourself about laws.

No, you just use the copies others have removed DRM from. So you do it by proxy, as you knowingly use de-DRMed copies. And the author doesn't get paid for your pirated copy. So, since you said people who use their Kindle copy on a Kobo or vice versa are thieves, by your own terms you're a thief too. Because you don't buy a second license. Having a paper copy doesn't give you the right to have a free digital copy.

Thrilled to see Kobo continuing to innovate and put out new devices. Keep hoping for an updated Forma with better hardware, that'll be my next Kobo purchase and will replace my PW4.
This tablet? No thanks, I get that it's Linux so lower hw requirements, but 1 GB RAM for a $400 device is too weak for my taste. Also, they provide no information on the compatibility of the data you capture in their note-taking apps. I see that it's a port of the MyScript/Nebo app family, which you can also get in Android and iOS stores. But for this to be truly useful, the app needs to be able to cleanly export data to other editable formats without any loss of data or formatting. Hopefully there are generous export options built into the app. Otherwise you're painting yourself into the corner of a walled garden, with your data. For this application, I still prefer Ipad Mini/Ipad Pro 11. More spendy, for sure, but far great flexibility and hardware specs speak for themselves. |
