    Yeah, jailbreak and KOreader actually makes the device usable. I have one of the older ones so the screen is way too small for manga anyway, but at least i can use whatever the font I want and I can even change the default screensavers which is a nice addition.

      If you happen to read manga on your phone, you may be surprised how capable your old ereader might actually be.

        I actually read manga on my old Nexus 7 since my phone’s screen is not big enough. I tried some cbz mangas on the Kindle before but because of not every page is single, it was painfully slow to zoom and navigate. I would love the read them on Kindle if I can find mangas that don’t need to be zoomed though.
