Taking what you say into account, I think that the slow working - and perhaps also the periodic breakdown - of my PW2 probably is due to the small amount of free space.

During springtime or early summer I will buy a Voyage, but I dislike the case/cover that Amazon has chosen as a "standard". I will rather get one similar to the PW case.
Hello @mortenandersen...

If you actually want to buy a Voyage, then by all means do. I have a PW2 myself, and fully intend to buy a Voyage at some time in the future, perhaps after the rumoured new model becomes a reality.

However, for now, my Kindle is really very responsive, and a joy to use, because the bulk of my books are not on it, but rather stored in Calibre on my PC. I generally have 25-30 books in each of two collections (General and Juvenile), and when they have all been read, they are replaced by new collections from Calibre.

This approach has the added added advantage that sorting and cataloguing is hugely easier in Calibre than on the Kindle. Also, Calibre is free, and you can hold many more books there than you ever will on your Kindle. Calibre libraries numbering tens of thousands of volumes are not uncommon.
