Any help/ advice much appreciated

Oh one more thing, I don't want colour I like my ereaders to be B+W
Actually I've tried both Clara Colour and BW before picking up BW. Only difference is Colour has dual core processor and BW has single core processor but as per my testing there is no speed difference at all. Both devices are pretty fast. Probably you'll see difference if you read heavy size PDFs.

No ads on Kobo. You can even use SideloadedMode=true method to bypass kobo signin. It will also remove all the kobo ecosystem related things from the UI.
I like this approach as it feels clean and more personal device.

As for the sleep screen KOReader offers 6 different ways to configure it. I'm sure you're already aware of this as KOReader is an universal reader. You never tried it on your Kindle or android?
Personally I use only KOReader as it has more customization especially with personal gestures and their actions.
