I'm disappointed, but only because my expectations were quite high. I'm not tempted. From what I read, the Voyage seems to be the better option and the Paperwhite 3 an absolute steal. I'm astounded that TTS has not re-appeared given Amazon's current difficulties with accessibility. Even no speaker but bluetooth would not have surprised me, especially considering the Echo, Dot etc. In the same vane I would have expected font improvements. The blurb makes some vague claims about fonts, but I'm not clear on exactly what the claims mean. Given that the display is the same as the Voyage and Paperwhite 3 I and the implementation of fonts in software I doubt that fonts on this device are any more readable or customisable than those on the older devices.
I am glad I bought the Voyage when I did. I hope that in a years time we may finally see a Liquavista display and TTS. I hope that Amazon will implement more control over fonts before then.
