Excellent screen, Fast; good battery life, Simple operation
Relatively thick
Kobo's new hero e-reader has an excellent E-Ink screen, and has the best specifications of any e-reader on the market at the moment. It's slightly thicker than its competitors, but that's really the only down-side to what is an excellent device for readin...
