Either I have fonts that are too big, or really long lines of text. Also I like the Vision's flush screen, which you lose with the Vision 5/Libra. And I need another eReader like I need a kick in the head.

(Yeah, maybe, down the line, in a few years.)
6 inch readers seem like the right size to me. I don't have a need to try anything bigger. I read on a pretty small font so I get enough text on a page.

My used Shine 2 is supposed to get here tomorrow - looking forward to trying it out. I downloaded the user manual from the Tolino website and looked through it a little. I was amazed that the manual appears to have been written by someone who actually speaks English. So many electronic devices come with manuals that are so-so translations from the language of the country where the device was manufactured.
