There is one more point I want to make on this. Just because I was enthusiastic in finding news and sharing it about new eReaders from Kobo (and others) doesn't mean I was interested in buying every new eReader that came out. Since Kobo was the main brand I followed (the biggest competitor to Amazon), dropping the Libra BW was the main reason for my waning interest in news about new eReaders. For me, Kobo's "dropping" their quest to use the best E-Ink screens possible was discouraging. Which is why news about new eReaders is not nearly as important to me now. Whether that is the reason for anyone else's waning interest, I don't know — I only know for certain that this applies to me and has resulted in my "meh" attitude about new eReaders now.
