I'm looking for a new ereader
Here are the must-haves:

Easy access to all stores, without any network connectivity.
A screen that expands from a 6.8 inch eink when reading fiction to a 12-inch QHD amoled when reading PDFs
REAL page numbers, expressed in the user's choice of base 10, base 64 or hexadecimal.
A replaceable battery of at least 5000maH
An octacore 2.9GHz processor with 1TB of RAM
1Pb of internal storage, with a 2 zB sd card thrown in as a gift on purchase.
A genuine leather Faraday cage case.
A total price of $150US, payable in Bitcoin sent by post.

Drat - I knew I shouldn't have pushed my luck by asking for the removable page buttons.

No support for arbitrary bases for page numbers? No sale. I demand to have option to alternate between base-7, 11 and 13...

Added to the top of the priority list for the 23rd firmware update. (but 23rd in which base?)
