What's coming in 1-2 years for ereaders? Any reason to upgrade my Kindle PW4?
I have a jailbroken PW4 that works great, no issues whatsoever. I am loving koreader and native epub support and I think going forward I'd like to leave the Amazon walled garden for the lands of Kobo.
But, as I compared what I have to the Kobo Libra h20 and Forma the only thing I'd really be gaining are buttons (I really do like the idea of physical buttons), and a +1" or +2" screen.
Since what I have is great for me now and since I do have a large library of audible books I can access/need to read, I'm wondering what the real benefit to upgrading would be.
Any thoughts? Any suggestions on realistic upgrades Kobo (or a different manufacturer) might make in the next 1-2 years that would be worth upgrading for?
As it stands now, I'm not sure the 1-2" screen difference and physical buttons are enough to justify a $100-200 upgrade fee (after selling my PW4).
Bonus: If I ever did still my jailbroken kindle, is there a way to do it on this forum? I feel people might appreciate it more here than ebay and it seems like it's not possible to do so any longer.
