While the DX is a chonky one, the Keyboard is pretty light. I have arthritis in my hands and small and light keeps them happy. It's also very portable - I can slip it in my purse.

I also want physical page buttons. Not a lot of readers these days have those. The ones that do aren't as small as I'd like.

I'm not saying I couldn't be swayed, especially if someone offered me a magical unicorn 6", physical page button WITH a backlight e-reader! But for now I'm happy with what I've got and not looking to upgrade.
Well, Kindle Oasis and Kobo Libra 2 both have physical buttons and weigh less than Kindle Keyboard. True, they're a bit wider (and shorter), so I'm not sure they'd fit in your purse.

BTW, I'm with you re the buttons. I'd never buy an ereader without them.
