Best reader for Kanji support: Sony or Kobo
I am looking for a reader to practice reading Kanji text. I will buy the reader in Europe, so I need to install the Japanese dictionary and Kanji support after purchase. I am looking into the Sony PRS and the Kobo Touch/Glo models.
I wonder whether I can do this with any of the current models and whether one of those can be recommended for this purpose. |

You will need the Japanese firmware to do this. Regardless of your choice.

I was just looking at both of those today, and think the Sony to be easier on my eyes. The kanji was clear and crisp with no ghosting between characters.
