I'll keep my Voyage as my travel reader as I think it's more robust and it as a stronger case but for reading at home I'll use the Glo.
Awesome. I've been a long time owner of non-touch Kindles, and have always liked them more. Even now. But now, if Amazon brings some non-fancy features to KV2, I'd buy it, so that I have 2 eReaders. I like to be minimalist. It's just that here it rains a lot, and I LOVE reading while walking in rain, and I can't do that with my DXG... I've been doing it with my K3 (which is a beast in its own right).

Plus reading at night gives a very nice relaxing feeling and I'd like to experience that. So here I come with a appetite for front-lit ereader.

- Waterproof KV2, retain the flush screen (water and dust proof)
- Plain and simple back-plate instead of that fancy origami, just like PW3
- Non-intrusive Kindle logo just like PW3 (it's black instead of silver like Voyage and PW2)
- retain the strong build quality, so that it can bear the abuses it might go through, just like K3
- Audio (very unlikely to happen, because of this agreement)

If it has these, I'm buying KV2 in a heartbeat to replace my K3.
