I'm looking to pick up an ereader. My current library is just a few dozen epubs managed by Aldiko and exactly 1 book that I bought through the Kindle app.

I went in thinking I'd spend around $100-150ish, and I figured I'd wait to see if there's any memorial day sales this coming up weekend. After looking at some reviews, it feels like so long as I stick with a newer Kindle, Kobo, or even Onyx I can't go too wrong, is this true?

I just got a Libra 2 and each time I charge the battery I'm reading an entire book out of the Wheel of Time series. I am doing it at night so the brightness is low, but I still feel like I can't really ask for anything more out of the battery.

That makes me wonder how long it would last without using the backlight. Were those 5-6k pages with or without a backlight?

Check your page refresh setting.

I immediately set it to per page since I read about people seeing ghost images when it was per chapter for them (maybe even in this thread). I think it's fine I don't get 5000 pages per charge.

Indigo accidentally leaked one of the rumored Kobo ereader supporting color (from FCC filings earlier this year).

Edit: And saw another from FNAC for color Clara as well.

Looks like we're getting the official announcement on April 10th, I'm sure they're happy with the hype the leaks are generating though
