Kobo is relying too heavily on 3rd parties for their software, such as Dropbox, Overdrive, Pocket, and Device Repairs. This is coming to haunt them.

    The is one reason I went with a Boox device instead. No reliance on pre-baked software.

      Ever since I knew about boox I always wanted one. But I just couldn’t decide if I want a small ereader, a bigger color one for manga (yes I know manga is black and white most of the time) or an e-notetaker. And price.

        Yeah I took a pay off plan for the Go Color 7 Gen II. It was worth it for me even though I only just read regular books.
