I want simple, I want page-turn buttons, and I'm not really interested in colour or huge screens. I read books, and having something that will fit in my back pocket is a definite plus.

Suggestions and comments on which one to buy? Or Kobo alternatives that meet the necessary criteria. (Anything tied to Google is NOT an option, just to be clear!)
I cannot recommend any Kobo. The Libra 2 was discontinued and not replaced. The Libra Color is lousy because of the color filter. The Clara BW is 6". The Clara Colour is 6" and poor because of the color filter. The Sage is 8" but has a poor battery. The Elipsa is 10.3" and also has a poor battery.
