FWIW, I ordered the Kobo Libra 2 from Walmart. Should be here Saturday. Thanks all.

The Libra 2 is available from Walmart in the US. I cannot find a Libra 2 in the UK.

To send books from Calibre to the Kobo, do I just connect the Kobo and my computer by a cable, start Calibre, highlight some books, click send to device, then send?
Initially I just want to send books to the Kobo, change the layout using the Kobo software, and read. Anything else I should know? |

Remember your ability to change formatting on the device is limited; margins, line spacing, font and font size, and justification

I fix it in Calibre if an ebook is broken. I've tried the KOReader approach (and other apps), but KOReader installs on Kobo without a jailbreak.

Are there any disadvantages compared to stock? Using Calibre to convert to epub (including from epub) almost always fixes any problems I have with an ebook. |

Personally, I prefer (heavily patched) stock reader. I also edit the formatting of all my ebooks with the Calibre editor before loading them on my Kobos. Folks who prefer KOReader usually don't edit their books before reading. |
