What "frozen screen syndrome"? That's a new one on me.
A fair few people on Getsastifaction whinge about how Kobo won't replace their "frozen-screen defective Kobo" for free - when what they have is a smashed screen.

The answer would appear to be simple: don't break them. Screens don't break on their own.

Maybe amazon's answer to the Aura HD? Better screen resolution and improved light. I quite like my paperwhite. Not sure if amazon will do enough to tempt me to upgrade this year.

I think that's a reasonable bet, yes. I too am very happy with the PW, but I'm sure I'll upgrade anyway - I always have done .

I'm pretty sure I'll update as well (unless all they make is cosmetic changes). My PW is my reader of choice. I was tempted by the Aura, but decided to hold on to my money until the Amazon upgrade.

A couple months ago the upper three fourths of my kindle keyboard screen just stopped working. I was reading on it and it was working fine, and then I turned the upper three fourths of the screen just froze.

In my dreams I want more storage (maybe an sd card slot), ePub support, PDF reflow. A better screen and light, no blobs!, more font choice, TTS back but as good as I get on my Nook HD tablet with Ivona.

But that's in my dreams. I think the best we can hope for is a better screen and light.

Foldable eInkt screen would be nice, or colour eInkt perhaps.
