the Kobo Vox has colour

Gwyn, I have been thinking about one for a long time I saw the Sony in Waterstones ages ago, but they stopped selling them. So i concluded that there was only the Kindle left with its world dominiating parent company! This thread has got me looking agian at what is around - i'm amazed and bewildired by what is available.

HG how are you finding the Kobo ereader? I have been thinking of getting one for the holidays.

It seems that they are good at reading pdf's which means you can put a Pentax manual on it...

Dave

It is nice and wide on a film camera
