I don't think there is any difference between Alita and Ares, for example. So what if the e-ink screen itself is flexible and not glass, but everything on top of it is the same (probably) - including the light scattering layer, the light guide layer, probably more glass above those, and light diffusion (anti-glare) layer.

BTW, I just ordered Ares, so I will have a chance to compare Alita and Ares myself
But there is no way it will fit into the list of my devices. The number of characters is limited.
I guess, I will throw out PB 902. There is no reason to keep it anymore.
Perhaps I will also get rid of all Kobo readers. Aura One is very nice, but it is linux-based, no card and only 8 GB of flash memory.
But I will definitely keep (rooted) Sony PRS T2. I love it so much.
