What do you find 'slow' on Scribe? It's as fast as any of the other Kindles.
An 8" Scribe would be interesting, but I think I'd still opt for 10" (assuming that is an option). I have done handwriting on my iPad mini but have to write proportionally smaller and it feels a little cramped. Presumably the templates would have to scale down 20% so that you could go between 8 and 10 inch devices without weirdness. And for fixed layout content bigger is always better.
I didn't like the asymmetric design of Oasis, the buttons did not match up with my hands, and it was anti ergonomic for me. I'm not anti-button, but my 8" color PocketBook has them on the bottom where I can operate with either hand without flipping it over, or ignore them and just tap and swipe.
Too bad the ColorSoft and 2024 Paperwhite weren't 8", I think that is about perfect page size for most reading.
Mostly the things I'm wishing for are software / platform enhancements, e.g. being able to view handwritten notes (active canvas in addition to sticky notes) on other Kindles and Kindle apps or for print replica documents. Why not have underline highlight style available everywhere too? And work with publishers to enable Scribe support for fixed layout textbooks. Support 2 page view for print replica.
