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!
I feel exacly the same, if you exchange "Auro One" to "Forma".
