Kobo eReader retail package

Dedicated ebook readers have been around for a couple of years and now we are seeing the price drop into the range than more people will find attractive. Kobo did an excellent job with the eReader device in most respects and the eInk reading experience is quite good. There could be some improvements made to the ebook management software on the device, but reading is a pleasure. Make sure to check out the full article that includes a video walk through and comparison of page turning speeds.

I appreciate these pictures

Thanks for the effort of taking "all" of these pictures; this really helps me understand the true details of these readers.
The Kobo has some really good features (rubber buttons, soft back, etc). Because of your pics I can make a good decision!
