Many people get an ereader for health reasons (the screen is safer for the eyes than monitor, tablet, smartphone and so on). To improve the Aura One's readability I would suggest:

-easy accessible full-screen-reading mode; even in the kepub file (and without bug)
-Landscape mode available in ALL kinds of file
-Free advanced fonts control in the custom fonts added by the user (possibly with customizable kerning)
-Font's setting for the popup windows of the dictionary
-The touch zone must be the same of the respective area that you see on the screen; above all when you select a word
-The night yellow light must be even spread, indeed it has green halos when used at the 1-5%

To improve the performance:

-Long battery life (It would be better to get a device slightly bigger then run out of battery fastly)
-PDF and mobi files are usually too slow, they must be read fluently as other formats
-A system of folder and subfolder for the collections (possibly the same of the folders you arrange via pc inside the device)
