Jacob Saunders<p>For anyone with a Kobo reader, my books are now available on the Kobo store!

Trafiłem akurat na moment gdy producent postawił na kolor...<br>Który nawiasem mówiąc ledwo zauważam. Gdyby tylko jeszcze te stare cz-b Libra można by było dostać.<br>Oczywiście po włączeniu podświetlenia jest już ok ale to duża łycha dzięgdziu jak dla mnie.

Roughly one year after I trashed my Kindle Paperwhite, I concluded that I do need an ebook reader. Two main reasons are traveling and reading in bed at night.

As I no longer want to give my money to Amazon, I found two alternatives:

- Kobo Clara BW from the Japanese company Rakuten.

- Tolino Shine 5 by the German Tolino-Allianz.

Their specs are almost identical, Kobo sells for 150 EUR, Tolino for 100 EUR.

Has anyone experience (good or bad) with any of these?
