I don't care whether something FEELS expensive, especially when the Sage already is stupidly expensive, for me.



What I do care about is the idea of a half kilo ereader, that's just appalling. I almost never read on a flat surface, and on those very rare occasions when I do, it's at my computer desk where I might just as well plug in my Sage and have it charging while reading without the burden of doubling it weight. I've even taken my Sage out of its regular sleep cover and will continue using it like that except when taking out of the house, which happens on average once a month or so.
That was not my meaning. It feels well made and quite luxurious to me but these things are subjective in large part.
