Hmmm... I was on a trip to the States and got to handle one. Sorry but I'm going to stick with my KA1. The buttons were harder to use—for me—than a simple tap or swipe, the storage for sideloaded books was pathetic at best—0.95GB isn't going to make many happy who are not thoroughly embedded in the B&N ecosystem. The font controls weren't bad but again, I'm used to better ( IMNSHO ). I didn't see much difference in the light temperature control but then I never use that feature. As for the size, my KA1 is larger but gives me a 7.8" screen so either a larger font size for these old eyes or more text on the screen.

Again for me the real deal killer is 6.7GB for side loaded books compared to 0.95GB.
