[Paperbackstash]

I have previously been happy with my Paperwhites and had no desire to update due to cost and portability.

Frankly I've been in the mood for a new e-reader and I don't see Amazon releasing any new ones (besides perhaps Fires or basic Kindles) for awhile. By their history I don't see them releasing a new paperwhite this year, and likely not a new Oasis yet since the Oasis 3 was released last year.

My Paperwhite 4 has become increasingly buggy, and it's my main reading device. I keep getting software glitches and bugs. I realize this could happen with an Oasis as well, but I'm not sure if some of the issues is the PW4 slowly wearing down - I use it very frequently, and have owned a few years, bought the first week it was released.

Other considerations are I've never owned a Kindle reader with buttons before and am curious about it. Also curious on the warm light feature (not impressed by the Fire's though, I've heard that's not as good). Also I'm curious on having a larger screen to read on.

My consideration of having portable (easy into purse) is not an issue right now. I've been working from home for the most part for months now. My office just closed down again for less office time. I don't think I'll need to worry about portability for months.

However, I'm just not sure either. It's a cost upgrade, although Amazon has the payment options which would help. Do you think it's worth the upgrade now, or?
