Well, I can! I think it’s the critical difference in an immersive reading experience. Nothing wrong with a 6” reader for out and about, but 6.8” I think really hits the sweet spot between evoking a real “page” and portability. And my own anecdotal evidence: I did a side-by-side with a 6” and a 6.8” screen to my sister, who could never quite get on board with 6”. Sold!

The price is nice, but if your PW is perfectly functional, it's not worth it.
The price is very nice, especially if you can do a trade-in. (Although if you’re not in a hurry, I think waiting on BF could be better still - but perhaps not, given how new the device is. Me, I always wait on a sale price. ) But as always, people have different needs and preferences.
