   I just had the opportunity to see a Kobo Arc7HD. The person   
   primarily uses it as an eReader.  He needed help with an update, so   
   I volunteered. The Arc is *not* an eReader. It's a tablet. It's a   
   poor choice for a primarily e-reading machine.   E-INK (via a *real*   
   ereader device) is the way to go if you want an electronic way to   
   read books.   
      
   Personally, I find my 1st gen Kobo (from 2009) still quite enjoyable   
   as long as I can cast good ambient light on it.
