The screen on the Kindle keyboard and the Clara are the same size. But the Clara is much smaller and lighter than the Kindle.

Also, even though screen is the same size, it is a much better, newer screen.

Yes. You can get overwhelmed with the options.

Using book covers as screen saver doesn't use any more power than any other screensaver.

- The light is a good point? I usually read by night and use a side lamp. Of course I use the ereader outdoors but not so many times (mostly when travelling).
Wait until you use the orange light at night. I didn't think much of the orange light when I first heard about it. But then my partner and I were reading in bed, one reader with the orange light and one nwithout. Suddenly the one without seemed so bright.

The waterproofing, maybe not a big deal. But it can be reassuring if you are outside and it starts to rain or you are camping.
