I have the DXG and the DX & DXG just basically KK2 with bigger screen. It was a failure for University text books which was market. Too slow for PDFs and 167 dpi @ 9.7" is too poor.

The 2022 Basic seems like a PW3.

Voyage and Oasis too expensive. The Scribe is a new departure, but not innovative. They have no doubt waited till the 300 dpi screen available after DX/DGX disaster.

The models after PW3 are incremental changes with increased storage a default on most new models of anything. The Oasis far more worthwhile upgrade from PW3 than Voyage, but madly expensive. The Oasis gen 4 hardly much difference to an Oasis 3rd Gen with 32G & Cellular (which I just gave to someone).
The ancient 6" Sony (PRS650?) before the T1 is better than pre-2022 Kindle Basic.
Amazon bought in Mobipocket and the eink screens. Mostly behind other eink models for the last 15 years. The Scribe is the first to leap frog all the other 10″+ size eink, but only because the 300 dpi screen is new and they are all 227 dpi approx.
Only actual users will reveal how well the Wacom stylus is used. That's what a reMarkable uses and it's one of the worst 227dpi 10.3″ eink with a digitiser. Poorer than defunct Sony and much poorer than the Elipsa.

Soon the competition will also have 300 dpi 10″ approx screens.
