Amazon, evidently, doesn't seem to care about that at the moment. They will, though, as the Kindle ereader goes the way of the Kindle Fire and Kindle Fire Phone.
What absolute nonsense. A Voyage is not merely a Paperwhite with a higher-resolution screen - it's a completely different device with a metal case, toughened glass screen, page-turn sensors, and light sensor, none of which the Paperwhite has. Adding a higher-resolution screen to a Paperwhite does not magically turn it into a Voyage.
