The ever smaller, thinner, lighter isn't for me. First thing to do with a Voyage would be to put it in a "hefty" protective cover - so that's that.
Must see the light and the page-turn sensors in action to have an opinion on those.
The manual - linked in this thread (thank you for that) - doesn't show the Aa menu. So we don't know about font/margins etc options yet. The new chapter navigation looks nice though, hopefully the old Goto Menu is still there (support for more than two levels for nested TOCs would be nice).
For me the 300 dpi resolution is the main/only reason to take a closer look at the new Amazon reader. Perhaps with 300 dpi (plus anti-aliasing) the font-rendering has reached some kind of saturation point, and there wouldn't be much improvement with 350 or 400 dpi.
That said I will wait at least till beginning of next year to update my Kindle PW1. And - someone should tell Amazon that they could sell more ereaders and earn more money at a lower prize-point .
