I'd like to suggest that if some features don't matter to you, you can just ignore them. Why make them part of the consideration?

I'm thinking of getting a Kindle Voyage. I have a Paperwhite now. I'm very sure I'll never use the page press buttons but I don't care at all that they're there. I'm focusing on what it does have that I want, in particular, the higher pixel density and the lighter weight. I have to decide if those are worth the price to me.

Another suggestion is to take all our suggestions with a grain of salt. If at all possible, try to find a way to look at the various ereaders and decide which one you like. The many and varied suggestions you're getting might indicate that they're about our tastes and needs and have little to do with yours.

Of course if you do that and get an ereader I don't approve of, I'll be very hurt.
