I don't care if e-ink is behind the curve. Being usable in direct sunlight is the only thing that really matters to me, as about 50% of my reading is done on the go, waiting for, or sitting in public transport.

I don't care about any frills either: Goodreads, asocial media integration, collections, SD expansion... It all doesn't matter to me. The only thing that matters on top of being usable everywhere, is customization of the reading experience (fonts, margins, page numbers, etc). This latter point is the reason why I keep looking at the Kobo's. Maybe I should just go take a look at an Aura HD H2O.

And the PWs have the most gawd awful screen I've seen on a reader since the Sony PRS-700 introduced Mr. Magoo Vision.
In that case, you've been unlucky. My KPW1 screen is almost perfect, and a huge step upward of the screen my Touch had.
