I wouldn't hold my breath. The DX didn't sell very well. Why would they make an even bigger Kindle?

I highly recommend Mobile Read Eternal Rest for your funeral. We throw a real whiz bang of a service here. It's very dignified. You get your choice of pall bearers; either dancing monkeys (my recommendation) or sad pandas if you prefer things a bit more somber. Just let us know.

If they wanted they could offer both 13" e-ink and Liquavista reflective LCD next year, but that won't happen.

Maybe there'll be Pocketbook's 13" e-ink finally available next spring for a half the price of DPT-S1 but I wouldn't bet on it.

I hope to see some good 8" e-ink with light and pen or at least good pdf annotation capabilities next year and Plastic Logic's big e-ink screens at affordable prices winter 2016 or finally some 10-12" reflective color LCD summer 2016 .

Agreed. No way is Amazon going to release something like the OP wants.

They will release it the moment some other company release it in quantities considerable enough and price low enough to really change something in textbook/pdf devices market, no matter e-ink or reflective color lcd, regrettably that probably means no earlier than summer 2016.

If not as CEO's right hand, then they should at least employ you as spokeswoman.

13,3", color reflective display (Liquavista?)... like Sony DPT-S1 but with color.
The notebook/textbook of the future...

Perhaps 2025 I'm afraid

Liquavista is not ready for prime time, or Amazon would have already done it.

Device/epaper that big is not an e-Reader, it is a document management tool.
Generally the most paper waste is being generated in the offices. Thousands of reams and tons of ink right now.

Bookshops are closing down, people read less.
Perhaps change your signature: "Save a Tree Buy an Digital Paper!
But I would address this somewhere else not here - to governments, businesses, law firms, medical institutions, musicians etc.
