You can't produce these things on demand; research takes time. |
In actual fact, Amazon have gone backwards. They dumped the big DX because it didn't make *enough* money for them, though the devices are still in demand and still sell. They dumped buttons then brought them back, for a ridiculous surcharge. They could create a device with a larger screen. But they're not interested. I count that as bad for innovation and bad for progress.

It is unfortunate that you view this forum as an "hominy lovers'" forum rather than a mobile reading discussion forum, which is what it actually is.
