Whenever I need to call a new number (and I do it often - because companies, state etc.) I manually add the country code to it. Because they often don't add it themselves when putting it on their website or in a message. If I use it as it is and don't add the country code, the moment they call/text me back the phone software considers it a different number because the caller ID actually includes the code.

Why? Can't a 3rd party just make an app? Given you already have the eInk screen, how is a dedicated ebook reader supposed to be different from an eInk tablet with a reading app?

A dedicated device can be better for avoiding distraction. When reading on my phone or computer I'll often switch apps to look something up or check something, but when reading on a dedicated e-reader I find the friction of switching devices keeps me conscious of the distraction.

If you can stay focused while reading on a multipurpose device, you probably don't need an ebook device. But I happen to appreciate the option.

ereader == Kobo, Kindle. Not an app.
