Already have the Boox i86 and don't see the point of any frontlight for a device that is supposed to be like paper relying only on ambient light. I'd rather have an SD card and good old micro USB instead.

An eReader it's supossed to be, to say it in a easy way, an improved book. It's not only abut having many books or pdf's in there, it's also making the process of reading better. That is achieved, with other functions, with the frontlight. Rellying on the ambient light of your house it means maybe the next place you will be going with your eReader it's not well illuminated and you see almost nothing. Also, the contrast it's much better with frontlight
About microSD slot, I reallyl don't understand why people care so much about that when there are may ways to transfer files between two devices when both are connected to the same LAN, have wifi or bluetooth antena. Even there is the posibility of plugging a USB OTG cable with a 8€ mini card reader.

It addition the screen size is a problem in and of itself. how many frontlight devices have you seen with screens above 9.7"? You can always use a clip-on book light.

Bigger than 9'7" never, but if Note is 10'3" and my Onyx N96ML+ of 9'7" has a perfect frontlight sure it's not a problem of 0'6" more. And the clip isn't a practical solution. Maybe a well designed cover with some leds it could be a good option, but that's not the case
