Interesting. It's tempting but I still think I might wait until Amazon does something official in this space, as going through multiple units just to find one I like seems like a crapshoot. The Kobo has an adjustable gamut which allows me to turn off blue almost entirely at night, and get a very close to white color during the day. My old Paperwhite had a very close to white color too. The Oasis I have is distinctly blue. But even if were white, I think the Kobo has ruined me for night reading; anything non-yellow seems too harsh now. I would think that Amazon should be able to add this as a feature to a new version quite easily; it may even be possible to do it through a software update but that depends on the kind of LEDs they have used.
