Today unboxing a Kobo LIbra Colour ereader I received as a gift.
Two things I immediately like:
* it mounts via USB as a plain storage device (formatted FAT32) under Linux (LMDE) and epub files can be simply copied to the device in the console
* its a simple matter to add a one-liner to the plaintext config file stored on the device to disable the need to register and setup an account (user has options)
Kudos Kobo!
