Most people that use ereaders to read ebooks seem to think that Nooks aren’t very good and they would never consider buying one. There was a time when Nooks were seen as a good alternative to Kindles, and there was a brief time when Nooks were actually kind of popular (back in the early days). […]
New Kobo eReaders Listed on FCC, But Don’t Get Your Hopes Up
I’ve been keeping an eye on this Netronix page for new FCC listings for Kobo devices, and a couple of new entries turned up this week.

As someone who has been following the dedicated ereader market for the past 16 years, it seems like Kindles, to some extent, have lost their shine over the past few years. There has always been an anti-Amazon crowd, and there has always been plenty of Kindle detractors out there, but it just seems like Kindles […]
Kobo Libra 2 Alternatives – 7″ eReaders with BW Screens
It’s crazy how often you still see people complaining online about not being able to buy a Kobo Libra 2, so I thought I’d put together a list of alternatives. Kobo discountinued the Kobo Libra 2 over a year ago after they released the Kobo Libra Colour. The Libra Colour is almost exactly the same […]
