Basically, the Clara WB is what one expects: nice clear text (with quite a range of font options), simple operation. In other words, an eBook reader.But there are some annoyances. First, the exterior is rather slippery; I find it difficult to hold the unit in some positions and it seems really easy to drop. Second, a truly annoying software issue: when searching for books using Overdrive (public library), the source selection keeps reverting to the Kobo bookstore. And when I try to borrow a book, I end up on the Kobo bookstore page! This may not sound like a big deal, but it's guaranteed to drive you crazy if you are searching for several books, say when preparing for a trip. Of course Kobo wants to sell books, but this "in your face" aggressiveness? Come on, Kobo -- you can do better!
