It's a shame, as I think Kobo offers by far the best combination of hardware and software, but I appreciate that in a niche market like e-readers, companies simply will not be able to cater to all preferences.
I'm curious, why can't you hold the Forma/Sage type comfortably? If you want to hold it in two hands, you could read in landscape mode.

I can understand the desire to have a symmetrically shaped reader for aesthetic reasons, but I can't imagine the reason why you couldn't hold a Forma or a Sage comfortably. You don't have to use the buttons.
