I could possibly see that might apply to me as well if I try both devices. Even if I do not like heavy devices (my main concern with the Sage) I usually prefer thinner devices and also flush screens. The screen size of A1 and Forma is perfect for reading books, and I am glad they continued with that size on the Sage. I would not like to have smaller screens and the Elipsa is too big for me.
Presently, I only use the Sage and the Elipsa. I have buried my Libra H2O in a cupboard: its yellowish screen (even after an exchange) was too annoying, and I discovered that the Sage (without cover) fit in the outside pocket of my bag (not big, just a couple of centimeters bigger than the sage in width and height), so carry it around. Plus the extra inch of the Sage does make a difference.

Do not be too optimistic about PDFs on the Sage: in my library, there are 15 PDFs that are good on the Sage (and wood look good on the Libra too), but look ridiculous on the Elipsa, and 111 that are readable only on the Elipsa plus 26 epubs that also need the Elipsa. And even on the Elipsa, there are a very few which I have to read in landscape mode, la Nueva gramática de la lengua espáñola de la Real Academia Española for instance. I used to read some of the other "Elipsa only" on the Forma in landscape mode, but it was not pleasant with PDFs with 2 columns text.
