Gallery 3 sure looks like it would solve the resolution/brightness (and even washed-out colors) issue:

The worrisome thing is the date of that announcement: April of last year. That's about the time the Sage disappeared from the US Kobo site. I wonder if they were planning to update that to a Gallery 3 screen and something bad happened. A Gallery 3 Sage with a bigger battery would be just fine. But, I'm finding references to only one or two devices using Gallery 3 since then.
