That's fair comment.

I appreciate the difference between an e-ink reader and an LCD tablet - that's why I'm not going down the easier tablet route!

I haven't realised just how small a 6 inch reader is though. I found it very hard to highlight text on the T3 without making the font huge. I don't need something small enough to fit in a pocket. The 6.8 inch Onyx Boox T68 would be ideal if anyone eventually stocks it.

Like many of you here, I will continue the search for the ideal Android e-ink reader. In the meantime I will likely succumb to the iPad mini 2 for non-reading purposes.
