I feel the same as Ikmiller. I've loved the 8" screen of my KA1 for the last 2 years. My Forma gives me all the same advantages plus nice quiet page-turn buttons, light weight, better battery life (I think) and a much more even colour when used in "full orange" mode. I have no regrets about buying it.
If the faint grey-light-grey smudge along the button edge is going to bother you, don't buy it. There are photos in this forum which will allow you to judge for yourself whether it's a "bright white streak" or a storm in a teacup. Those who prefer to read with large side margins or with a ragged-right edge may notice it more than those who don't.
As for the so-called flicker and whine issues, I've already posted my personal thoughts in post #192.
