using kobo forma with koreader makes me feel like i'm from the Star Trek future holding a powerful artifact
it does what it should, it's pleasant to interact with, it has good aesthetics, and it helps me understand books in a way paper doesn't (context sensitive dictionary lookup turns out to be really important for me)
it's been a day and the thing already feels like an extension of myself; and i never have to work around it

I’ve seen the answer to this quest…

“Assistive technology is a good thing, of course it is, but you’ve seen so many miracle solutions that are unusable, painful, or exhausting, that work no better than what you’ve learned, perfected, and shared with others, that you’re sceptical. How will they treat you if you can’t use this technology? What if you don’t want it?” Photo is from the screen of my Kobo e-reader.

why did it take me so long to buy a e-reader
i got a kobo forma for 130 GBP (it's a display unit. if i'm unsure about an electronics purchase i ~always buy used) and i feel like it's already paid for itself in a sense
