Hrmmm a very tempting device to be sure... but I think I’ll wait to see what Amazon pits out - I own both a Kobo Aura One and a Kindle Oasis 2 and I just love the *feel* of the Oasis better, and this new Kobo kinda just seems like a bigger, less impressive Oasis. I love how premium the Oasis 2 feels as well. I am a sucker for style but I think that is where the Kobos disappoint... it’s kind of like Androids and Apples, iPhones just seem to have this premium quality finish on them that I’ve yet to see on an android device yet... I do miss all the font customisation and margin options on my Kobo but again I just love the feel of my Oasis. Omg does this make me shallow?!? :P

Hoping that another ‘light gate’ saga doesn’t appear with the release of the Forma like it generally does, no bleeding, blotchy lighting etc. which Kobo is reknowned for IMO... really hoping for an Oasis 2 update soon so I don’t give up and splurge on a Forma!
