Hi,

My Kindle won't boot anymore and keeps getting stuck in boot screen, so I thought this might be a good time to get away from Amazon, even though that device was great.

So, what non-kindle readers would you recommend?

It should have color and background light and it shouldn't be huge so I can keep it in the back pocket.

And, since I don't have any experience outside the Amazon ecosystem: how is the experience of buying and transferring books to non Kindle readers?

I have a Vivlio, a French ebook reader, and I'm quite happy with it. I have a Kindle Paperwhite too for Amazon purchased books, but mainly use the Vivlio. I'm not sure if it's available in the States, or even outside of France.
