If you are looking for an eReader this Christmas, there is one from Europe - Pocketbook/Vivlio
I bought a PocketBook InkPad Color 3 a year ago and wanted to love it but it's a frustrating device. It is so insanely slow. Navigating menus to do anything other than turn pages in a book made me mad. Especially frustrating because other manufacturers manage to make their eReaders snappy. I switche

Pocketbook doesn't need KOReader
I have the opposite experience. I have a Kobo Libra 2 and a Pocketbook Inkpad Colour 3. I never understood the Koreader hype when I only had the Kobo. Pocketbook for me is unusable with its stock UI. I was actually going to sell it before putting Koreader on it. Bizarrely it’s super sluggish if you

Got a B751C S to replace my Kobo : pretty disapointed

I absolutely love the integration of Koreader with Pocketbook.
I have both a Kobo Libra Colour and a PocketBook Inkpad Color and without Koreader, I feel the PocketBook would almost be unusable. The native UI is so so slow. Thankfully, koreader makes it usable.

How long does your battery last on the Pocketbook Inkpad Color 3?
My InkPad 4 - which has a smaller battery than the InkPad 3 colour - definitely lasts weeks (but also doesn't need light in daytime, since the screen is brighter). At this point I have the suspicion that some PocketBooks have in some cases a problem with the software regarding how full a battery is

Influence or deinfluence me on the Kobo Libra Colour
Unless you specifically want color to read a lot of comic books or graphic novels, get a B&W reader. Color e-ink displays are so much darker when reading B&W text content, it's almost impossible to read them without the front light on, which to me defeats the purpose of an e-reader. Check out the Po
