IMO a feature missing on all Kindle ebook readers, other than hacked ones, is the ability to choose your own photo(s) to be displayed when the reader is in sleep mode. If you have the "special features" you get an advertisement and if you have one without that you get a dozen or so Amazon chosen photos. Sony had the ability to choose your own sleep mode photo since the PRS-X50 models from 2010 until their consumer ebook readers were discontinued. In fact you could choose a number of photos and each time the reader entered sleep mode it would show one of the selected group of photos. A very nice feature.
