I know it should be technically possible, but I don't think eInk offers a product with those specs.



I can see that, from the perspective of a current H2O owner. As someone still using an Aura HD I'm tempted. Not sure how I feel about no microSD slot. On the one hand 8GB is more than enough for my current library & expansion, but I've gotten used to keeping my whole library on a card instead of the device storage.
Frankly, if I were in the market, I'd be looking out for a fire sale on the original H2O. Right now, they're only $20 off at Kobo with free shipping, but it might be possible to do better. I'd keep an eye on prices at Chapters. That's how I got my Glo HD; clearance price at Chapters.
