Kobo Mini on sale for $40

[elf]

The Kobo Mini is on sale until July 18, for $40+shipping.

• 5" touchscreen (smaller than most ereaders)
• 1GB user-available storage
• Available in black or white
• 8 font styles with 24 font sizes
• EPUB, PDF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, TXT, (X)HTML, RTF, CBZ, CBR
• Pearl E-Ink screen (long battery life, B&W only)
• Various cloud and internet features that I know nothing about

Technical specs

I've ordered one. I'll post a review when it shows up. This may be the ereader I've been waiting for. (Well, except for touchscreen, which I don't like, but for $40 I'm certainly willing to give it a try.)

ETA: Kobo apparently has problems with double-billing; I checked my purchase, which had an authorization error at first, and sure enough, I've been billed twice. I've sent an email to try to get it fixed; if that doesn't work, I can contact my bank to contest the charges. Just a warning for people whose money is tight--if you get an auth error, DO NOT attempt to repeat the purchase right away.

thanks for the suggestions. i might try some of that later, but frankly don't use the kobo enough to care at this point. i am much fonder of my kindle ::shrugs::

I really do appreciate you taking the time to try and help nonetheless ♥
