My Kobo got a cracked screen after I tossed it around too much (I'm not proud) and I got a Kindle Keyboard 3rd generation. It's actually older than my old Kindle that I had before the Kobo. Yes, this is ridiculous, but here are the perks: It doesn't have a touch screen, meaning that I don't lose my place because I bumped it with my hand, I don't have to be careful to only touch it round the edges, and I can use buttons to turn pages. I don't connect it to wifi generally, but use Calibre to transfer books that I get from the library. (Calibre is a magnificent piece of software). I have to use a Calibre ascm converter to get the library ascm files to work, but now that it's set up, it works flawlessly.
