Kobo Libra COLOUR 7" 32GB Wi-Fi eReader - White (N428-KU-WH-K-CK) is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 15.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Small Ebook Reader Works well as an reader. Easy to load / manage books using Calibre. It's light enough for me to hold in one hand for longer periods of time. The physical buttons are what sole me and they work. Just wish they arranged the buttons so U could go back and forwards with one hand. Have not tried to read library books yet. Works well for quick note taking. Sadly the Kobo pen is ridiculously overpriced, but all seems to work with the way cheaper MS Surface compatible pen. Kobo has a huge library of AudioBooks which are super expensive unless you join their subscription program (sort of like Audible). You can sideload mp3 AudioBooks as well but these open in a weird stripped down player (there is a bit of a process to this). Overall it's a great device, you're a physical button type of person. And until Kindle enables Audible support in AU/NZ it's also a better option for AudioBooks.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good but one button glitch experienced Hubby is happy with the Kobo and enjoying being able to use the Auckland library book borrowing service through it. Had a bit of a glitch with one of the buttons on first use, but a full logout and restart resolved it. Four stars due to the glitch.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simple and fantastic Love this ereader, I have been a kindle user up until now. But this is more than an ereader as it can be used as a notebook as well. The colour is nice and I like being able to read books/comics in colour as well as annotate in colour
