Dear silverraven:

All I can say is this: there will be new models BUT I expect they will have more features too. I would expect the 9 inch will have Wi-Fi, Touch Screen, and a lot of other features you may not need. The intent of the factories seems to just be the 9 inch should get the kitchen sink.

Meanwhile, the little 5 inch Pocket PRO is a pleasure, costs $199, comes in colors, reads to you, and offers really useful small features that make it just right. I cannot make your decision for you... but why wait. Unless you want touch screen and wireless I would advise against waiting and start enjoying!

NewEgg does have all 6 colors now in stock!

And, yes, trying to be as objective as I can be... there is a huge difference between 4 level and 8 level grey scale on ILLUSTRATIONS! If you do not look at a ton of illustrations and only read... I do not think you will ever notice the difference.
