What change to the Clara would cause you to upgrade? Waterproofing aside, there's no guarantee that the next model will be easy to open to change the SD card and I don't see Kobo or any other reader manufacturer making SD card swapping a priority. They haven't for years.

as i said each to their own. on my Aura 6" i have a total of about 35GB of storage including the external micro SD card slot therefore 8GB doesn't interest me in the slightest.
especially when the only way i can increase it if i'm luck and don't break it in the process is by voiding my guarantee/warranty by putting in another larger GB SD card, again that doesn't interest me in the slightest and neither does the Comfort light unless it's orange like on the KA1/H20 V2 i don't want the yellow Comfort light that's on the Clara HD/Forma.
the only new 6" Kobo ereader that would interest me like i already mentioned in an earlier post would be something very much like the H20 v2 with a plastic substrate, orange Comfort light and page turn buttons on the sides similar to the Kindle voyage.
anything less wouldn't interest me unless all my 3 Aura 6" broke and i had no choice but to buy a new one. taking away the external SD micro slot was a huge disappointment to me mainly because i have no real reason to buy a new Kobo ereader unless it as something really different/features to offer like a plastic substrate and physical page turn buttons.
edit. imho why buy a new ereader if it doesn't have the features on it you want? and your existing ereader in my case the Aura 6" does have a far more useful feature (external SD card slot) than any other feature on the latest kobo ereaders/models.
