I remember reading that the large 300 dpi screens were only for Amazon and that Kobo could not get them. I had a Scribe but sent it back because in night mode I found the screen very hard to read. I am quite happy with the Elipsa 2E -- the screen is clear and easy to read for my 80-year-old eyes whether in regular or dark mode. In any case, I do not like Amazon's readers and Amazon's software. I do wish Kobo would make available a new 7" reader -- don't care whether it's color or not.
