I've got the old model of this and it's great to read with. Overdrive integration is great for borrowing from libraries and saving more there.

sorted byIt's the best reader on the market, much more flexible and better to use than the Kindle.
Great value at full price, but this is a steal.
Wouldn't be without mine.
ps if you get one, go to Mobileread to find out how to customise it to your own preferences, making it even better.
ps if you buy from Rakuten Kobo themselves online, you get a two year guarantee. (edited)
I could also never go to an ereader without buttons but that's personal preference. (edited)
