They are all good ereaders. Have you ever owned a 6" device? Do you absolutely need buttons? Some people add a Popsocket on the back of their ereader and feel no need for buttons. Do you think colours could be a nice addition, or you have no need for it? It's really up to you and your reading experience. I know, it's hard. I've changed my mind many times about what's the best ereader for me. |

Isn't 100 books what you read a month not a year? That might be one of the reasons that I consider the cost of the ereader to be a minimal chunk of the overall ereading costs.

I would not assume the Clara b&w has a better display than the Libra 2 just because it uses a newer screen (carta 1300 vs 1200). The implementation matters a lot, and kobo may cut some corners with the cheaper device. I haven't seen any eink reader that matches the contrast of the Kindle Voyage, for example

I'm with you on this. I'd take a 7" reader with no buttons and slim bezels all around. I only use the buttons on the Libra because the huge bezel gets in the way of tapping the screen

I wasn't trying to be rude; I was genuinely puzzled by your position. Sirtel more or less explained it to me. Sorry to bother you.
