I don't care if all that tech came out last year or 10 years ago. So long as it has everything that I want it to have at a price I am willing to pay then that is what I will get.
So just stay here and yammer ad-nauseum about the specs while the rest of us go and get what suits us regardless of them!

Turn page buttons, storage space and screen quality are specs. Just like a lit screen is.
When it comes to justifying the price to themselves people look at the specs that interest them. Which is perfectly fine. What I disagree with is the idea that someone who doesn't want a lit screen should consider a lit screen an added value.
Either judge the value of a device subjectively and only count the specs that hold personal interest and understand that a lit screen doesn't hold extra value for a person who isn't interested in a lit screen, or judge the value of a device objectively and take into account all the specs.
