I agree, and I believe they will release one, perhaps even later this year (let’s see if a certain website picks this up as a rumor
). I think their strategy is to go all-in with the color rather than muddy the waters with a BW option (this is not my opinion, rather it is what I believe corporate board members might think is best at this stage).
I agree they should have provided a BW option for this reader, color aside, it is a more comfortable shape to hold than the Libra 2. It would also have been sensible to have it as a standby for all the people who purchased the color version and could not tolerate the screen.
Regarding your earlier post, no, I definitely would not reply personally to someone casting aspersions on my reading ability. I posted an image showing my 150 hours read in the past month, I think that says enough, without getting too involved. The very idea of someone suggesting I don’t read enough is a hoot!
