It's been almost 3 years since I bought an e-reader (not counting that gawd-awful BooX that I returned with prejudice), and I'm probably doing less than 5% of my reading on my Paperwhite now. It's mostly smartphone for me, iPad after that (especially since the Kindle app typography update), Fire just to read WSJ lately. I would not be interested in a large e-ink device, myself (even if I didn't have the iPad). I think it is actually easier to read text on a smaller screen, big screen is better only for layout and image intensive content. I like scrolling mode as well (Amazon, please add that option to the Kindle apps for Fire/iOS/Android), and e-ink does not do that.
But I would like to think that Voyage 2 will be pleasant enough that I'd use it much more than my Paperwhite. I might even chance pre-order just to find out.
