- must be at least 6.8
Found Aura HD to be okay, but wouldn't go smaller
- cheapest in that size range, but
- if the warranty is great as in more than 1 year, more expensive is okay
- ereaders that are especially durable; if I didn't drop or damage it, it shouldn't break
- fast page turn response
- frontlight
- great resolution (at least not a downgrade from before)

I bought a Kobo Aura HD which currently seems to be broken after 1.3 years, so not particularly keen on getting the H2O. Loved the Kobo while it lasted though. A $160 tablet wouldn't break down in one year, and if I bought a $400 laptop (2 Kobos), I would expect to be able to use it for a decade or more.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
