Thanks robko. Surprising that nobody's challenging the regular Kindle. Yeah, I don't really anticipating reading a ton on an ereader. Who knows though. There's so many good epubs online. Thanks for the insights.



Thanks JS. Did you mean only the basic Kindle was 800X600? (The PW and Voyage being higher.) Sounds like a plan. Think the Kindle will drop back to $49 maybe the day after Xmas or New Years? Will Aura ever go any lower than $99?

I have no idea if the Kindle will drop back to $49. If you miss the price it's at now, you'll pay $79 for it. I don't think the Kobo Aura will drop any lower then $99. $99 is a good price as is.

If you want another cheap unit you might want to look at the BOOX Classic as described in our wiki. Only 69 Euros. It has a 1024 × 758 px 212 ppi Pearl screen.

That's about $84 without shipping. The Kobo Aura is still a better value (touch and front light) and we know what version RMDSK is being used.

Perhaps but the classic is really just a stripped down C65 without a front light and without audio. Otherwise it is a C65 with full multiple format support and other goodies. It runs an early 2.x version of Android.
