I still have an old Kindle and it still gets months of battery life. I occasionally read comics so this may get me to upgrade.

I'd recommend everyone to buy a Kobo over these, it's much easier to read your own .pdf and .epub files than on a Kindle.

I also love my Kobo. I've heard you can unlock it and flash a community supported OS, which might be another true benefit over Kindle depending on your needs.

Im just using KoReader on mine. I don't remember the last time that I've seen the stock interface.
