Damn. I’m stuck deciding as well. I’m in Canada. Looking to purchase soon but it’s tough. Importance to me is size of screen and quality of print. I wear reading glasses. Also I would be reading a lot in a darker room.

Have e readers come always? I had a kindle maybe 3-4 years ago. I found it too small. And a year ago had a Clara and found it too small. And from what I remember both readers seem to flicker. Is that normal?

I’m a casual reader.

Any suggestions? For me it would be either kindle or kobo.

I was interested in the kobo forma but it’s pretty old now? Is it still pretty good and relevant?

Thanks for any guidance.
