I want it badly to best my voyage, too, because I like the larger screen, the warm light, dark mode, and because I'm so ready to make the jump to Kobo, more open, more customizable, more active development going on. Like Mulder, I want to believe!

And yet, and yet..

Eh. The difference is minor. So what if it's not quite the same? The Libra 2 has many other advantages, which you yourself just listed.

I dunno. I guess I just don't get that "one reader to rule them all" mindset. All my ereaders have had their advantages and disadvantages, none of them was perfect. Not even the Voyage (which I didn't even particularly like, other than the contrast).

If you seek absolute perfection, you'll probably always be disappointed.
