The Libra 2 is more like a MMPB because of the squarish design. The PW5 is more like a TB due to it's rectangular design.

The thing is, if you've not tried a larger screen reader, you won't know what you are missing and you may find you like the larger screen. 1" doesn't sound like all that much of a difference, but it is noticeable.

Really right now I'm just keeping my money in my pocket and looking forward to the release of the Clara 2. When it comes time to buy a new reader I'll have to juggle the two. Buttons are nice, though buttons on the Libra 2 have been complained about. If I buy the Libra 2 mostly based on my button lust, how mad will I be if the buttons suck?
I see no reason to complain about the buttons on the Libra 2. I've tried them and they work with no problem.
