    Perfectly meets my expectations, despite some expected improvements.

    As an avid e-reader, I love being able to highlight and annotate my reading. Not only does the choice of colours for highlighting the chosen extracts help me to organise these highlights and find them more easily, but note-taking (with the stylus) both directly in the book and in a notebook allows me to make instant notes of remarks, thoughts and/or additional information about the reading; all in one place (no more loose sheets or notebooks not always to hand) and very easily accessible.
    The quality of the e-reader is top-notch, and the options on offer are satisfactory. The high-quality screen makes it easy to read without straining your eyesight.
    On the downside, the screen is darker and has less contrast than the black and white versions, the stylus is not as responsive as it should be when writing, and the French dictionary is not up to scratch (although it can easily be replaced by a more comprehensive dictionary).
