There isn't really much else I want.
Lighting sounds nice. Not nice enough for me to upgrade from a perfectly servicable device, but when this one dies, I'll definitely look out for it.
The flexible screens are really what I'm waiting for, though. Mostly just because it addresses probably the biggest problem with ereaders: their fragility.
Other than that? Honestly I can't think of anything I want. I don't want a higher resolution screen. If I am reading something that would do better in high res, chances are I'm reading it on my tablet, not my ereader. Grayscale makes it sort of pointless to keep upping the screen res. What for? Are you really going to look at pictures on it? In black and white with a painful refresh rate?
I'm not even interested in color eink, for the same reason. If I want to appreciate pictures, I'll do it on a device that doesn't have refresh lag, and that actually shows bright colors, rather than washed out approximations.
I like that ereaders are cheap and simple. It's my escape device. I do NOTHING but joy read on it. It's the only device in my life that I never use for any sort of work, and that is in part because of its limitations. I like that.
