This thing broker after about a month of light use and being kept in my bag (not dropped either).
Kogan eventually replaced it so I was able to take it on holiday to Bali, where 30c temperatures meant the matt finish started to peel off (it now looks like it's been in a fire), and the battery will no longer charge up.
As to how it worked when it actually did? - Really slow page update. Main-screen has a whole bunch of options which just clutter it up and because of the slow refresh you will never use, and actually finding the book you've just loaded onto it is totally hit or miss and really frustrating. FAIL!
