I am bumping this old thread because I am limping along on my very old Kindle Fire and was unwilling to buy another Kindle when my Paperwhite stopped working. (Here is me explaining it, but it’s not interesting.)
Now I am considering a Kobo Clara BW, because I want to have eInk so I can read in bright sunshine. (I can’t on my ancient Fire) and that’s about all I care about. 99% of the time I would use it to read library books.
So basically wanting to hear updates on those with Kobos and any alternatives like other tablets that can be read in bright sunlight. But so far, those I’ve seen are way too expensive. A new Kobo is $140.
