The Sage is slightly heavier and does not have the rubbery edge that the Forma does. The screen seems a little better on the Sage but not a whole lot. The power button on the Forma is in a horrible place and I would occasionally turn the device off accidentally while reading. I prefer the Sage myself. The biggest plusses for me are the removal of the rubbery edge from the Forma and the proper placement of the power button on the Sage.

Both are excellent readers, IMO the best created to date.
Totally agree about the power button on the Forma. Horrible placement, horrible feeling and horrible quality (loved the power button on my KA1).

It is almost a must to have a sleep cover with the Forma (I never use the power button with the cover).
