![]() ![]() I downloaded Beatrice and Virgil, which I'd read in book form already, and found little difference in how I read the text. I can't recommend one over the other, but I had no problem reading on either. The Reading Experience: Like the Kindle the Kobo eReader uses E Ink technology.It's a pretty device, though not as pretty as a book. The small power button is on the top edge, though it seems like a redundant feature as the device is automatically "off" whenever you aren't using it. There are four more buttons, along the left edge of the device: home, menu, display, and back. Its biggest asset is that it looks easy to use: when you hold the device for the first time, all you really notice is the six-inch screen and a large, blue button in the bottom right-hand corner. The Look: It seems every new device takes a page out of Apple's philosophy of design, and the Kobo eReader is no different. ![]() The device's quilted back is gentle on the fingers, and its dimensions (120mm X 184mm 10mm thick) and weight (221 grams) make it is easy to hold. (Amazon's Kindle goes for $259.00, while the larger Kindle DX currently retails for $489.00). Costing the equivalent of 10 paperbacks, the Kobo eReader is one of the lowest-priced e-book readers on the market.
