To sum up: Kobo is most likely correct in giving a damn about the quality of their software.

Well, in the end, you exchange bugs by features, you make a balance and you decide. Amazon software is very stable... as my old Renault 4 without air conditioning, with manual change and so on... perhaps my current car has more faults, but it gives me more comfort. Each one his/her own.

I agree. Kobo do give a damn about the quality of their software. I have seen enough evidence in their product and behaviour to know that they care about what they put out.

Or did you make a mistake in you statement and managed to reverse the meaning of what would have been an inflammatory, derogatory and essentially pointless statement?

Ok, maybe for the sake of clarification: which new features has Kobo added to the firmware since say 3.12 that were not strictly device-specific requirements?

Thanks, that explains why they had to pull so many resources from bugfixing. These are all really complex tasks to implement.

You have to include support for new CPUs on some devices (which led to a quiet Mark 2 release).

There's also Lost In Austen (read Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility) and Classic Attack (Read all 5 classics that were preloaded to your library) that are greyed out, I don't have any progress toward those yet.

How do I complete the lost in Austin award I have 60% but can't figure out how to get 100%
