There is one change that can be made to most Readers. The change is to stop using glass backed screens and use plastic backed screens. It would lead to a lot less damaged Readers.

So a PW5 with a plastic backed screen, and color light (alow us to set the color as well as the intensity), 16GB storage, and 16:9 aspect ration would be a good upgrade.
