I don't read comics so color screens aren't important to me but it might be for others.
Have you looked at the Oasis v2? It is lightweight, has a larger screen than the others and has buttons.

On the books scale I would like to see the price of a kindle book to be half of what the price of a paperback book is. With a kindle book you don't have the option of lending it around or even reselling it like you do a paperback and you don't have the cost of paper and printing so I do think that they should be substantially cheaper.
That topic has been done to death. though I predict this thread could be derailed for three pages talking about the 'fairness' of ebook prices.
