Just got two kobos this month, for me and my wife. I had had one back in 2012 and wasn't reading much in recent years, but she had owned a handful of kindles before (never any other eReader) and lost all her book collection after her credit card was cloned and amazon deleted all accounts that had ever used it "for safety".
Her kobo arrived earlier and for a whole week she would come tell me all the amazing stuff she could do on it that she never thought possible. Incredible technological advancements like sending a file directly to it.
I was like "it's OK honey, you're out of that abusive relationship now"
