Libra 2 with a 7" screen has a 1500 m/ah battery whereas the Sage has 1200 for a bigger 8" screen. Maybe this is why Currys are lowering the price.
But if you want a 8" screen and can live with battery then good deal.
Congrats Roboto for 1st deal posted
How’s the book prices otherwise? How do I even buy books?
Sorry, am a complete newbie to Kobo, I’ve only ever used Kindle - would appreciate some advice
I think the selection and price is comparable to Amazon for big / established publishers
I'd only use it when travelling and then, mainly on the beach. That's why I've always gone with cheap paperbacks - I can leave them on my towel and go for a dip or a wander down the beach and no one's bothered. I never take my phone with me or anything valuable, so I'd like something as cheap as possible to start with. I won't be using it on a night, only in bright daylight.
Cheers
