I know, but for reading novels, I'm not convinced the 7" screen is better. And with the gradient light issues (when lighting from the side) I'm not sure if the form factor is better. (This comes from reading about the lighting issues in the Forma, Libra and newer Oases (not personal experience) -- I don't remember any one mentioning it on the older Oases, so it might have something to do with the amber/orange LEDs.)

I'm still not convinced that 6" Voyage, with the same format as the old one but with warm lighting, wouldn't sell well at the $180 price range. I, for one, would definitely be interested.
