I'm disappointed in the new offerings from Kobo and hope they release something more useful...to me anyway
I'd love a replacement for my Forma and I'm spoiled with the 8" screen. Nothing smaller will work because I read Manga as well as novels.
A colour screen seems pointless to me. I don't care about being able to see the book covers in colour and it's not a big enough screen to read comics. I would never annotate on an ereader and the stylus/pen is a ridiculous price. So, colour is utterly useless on a reader this size.
Come on Kobo, bring out a new Elipsa with a colour screen and I'll buy immediately. Until that day comes, I'm going to stick to a tablet for Comics and rethink my need for the 8" reader. Hey ho.
