I was skeptical about using an e-reader over an actual book but I have really enjoyed the ease of use of my Kobo. The lit screen feature is perfect for outdoor, sunny days or in low light like on a plane or in bed at night. The screen does not bother my eyes and really resembles an actual paper book page. I would love to get the next step up, the water proof version, but the glo was much more cost effective.

As much as I love the look, smell and feel of a good book, I have been converted to using an eReader. I checked out the Kindle and the Kobo and found that the Kobo was easier to use and offered many options of storage. The battery life is incredible and there are tons of cool covers. Get it and read!

Kobo glo is my second kobo I have gotten. And I love it! I'm not ready to go for the hd, because I like the fact I can add a miro SD card in my glo. And it works just fine without spending the extra money to upgrade just yet.
