More and more, I plan to ride my Aura One to the end of the line and get off at the cemetery. I’ll make my best choice of what’s available then in 8” and with luck, there will be something new. I’d always thought I’d get a Forma when a new 8” device came out and the Forma price dropped, but the price essentially hasn’t dropped. And not only is the Sage expensive, there are the weight and battery issues. If my Aura One croaked today, I’d probably have to go with the Sage; for not much more money it’s a much newer device, but I hope it doesn’t come to that. And for the time being, the costless device with the nice bookish rectangular shape seems by far preferable to either of the pricey newer alternatives. I’m hopeful that I won’t be forced to make a choice between them; my two oldest Kobos are coming up on ten years old and still work well enough. Vivat Aura One!
