for over a decade, I've bought Kobo devices and I still think they're excellent. but in recent years I've been using only KOReader, so I don't think waiting for Kobo makes sense anymore, with their infuriating lack of communication about new devices.

* I'd prefer something around 8-10", and it should be ergonomic.
* it needs to support KOReader. that's really the only software I trust to optimize for usability. to my understanding, any Android device should have feature parity on KOReader with Kobo devices?
* physical buttons would be nice to have, so would "comfortlight"-style features.
* a stylus is not a feature I want unless the device is good as a reader and I can just not use it.
* Gallery 3 would be cool, I don't know if that's asking too much. black-and-white would work as well and I can buy a color device in a few years
