I had a Kindle DXG. Even if they could make it much lighter in weight and reduce the overall size, keeping that large screen, and adding an even front light, it would be too big. I loved the DX for about a week. After some real world use, I changed my mind. It was just too big, line width was way too wide/long for long reading sessions.
Color e-ink holds zero interest for me. I don't care about front-light color adjustment. I don't need buttons.
My perfect reader would be 5" wide, the Oasis without page turn buttons, and 6½-7" tall. It would have one side bezel wider than the other, and auto-rotation for changing hands. Even screen front lighting, and much improved battery life.
It will be interesting to see if Amazon tries to get on this train. They may have learned their lesson about niche e-readers.
