I ended up exchanging it for a Voyage. Which is beautiful. But I really miss my H2o.
I imported it from Chapters Canada and it was absolutely perfect, I then went on a journey of buying and returning about 4 h2os from Australia, each of them with a terrible screen. Which made me vow to never buy a kobo again....

That being said, in my opinion, if I could exchange my voyage for a perfect h2o,i would. I've been thinking of importing another one from Canada, actually...

If they had devices with significantly smaller borders, they could get a 6.8" screen fitted in current 6" devices.

I'm sure if a 9" device comes out on a 4,5" device (screen folded), that a lot of people would find it an interesting device as well!
If it had much smaller borders, where is one suppose to hold the device then. You have to be able to grab it somehow without turning the pages. It will need to be a hover kindle then.

So you could be right.
Well I put my two cents worth in and sent Kindle Feedback and Jeff Bezos an email requesting:
1) A larger size option
2) More storage/removable storage
3) Font weight control, more fonts and font sizes
Actually got a form letter reply that my requests are invited and reviewed by the kindle team. I gave rationale for each request...who knows-someone may actually read it and/or consider it.
