And it will cost an additional $40 to unsubscribe from the ads and allow eBooks.
Then we will get people coming to MR because they bricked there new Kindle with ads trying to do away with the ads and allow eBooks.

the larger Fire, it if comes will be the Fire 10.

The new kindle will be.........drumroll please.......

Kindle Lumen

I really like the suggestion of Kindle Ember but they wont' go with that because Ember won't imply a built in light for the masses.

I like Kindle Spark, the OP's suggestion. Many of the suggestions like Lumen overlook the kindle metaphor (or should I say simile?) and are not poetic or catchy. Still better than "with glowlight." Somebody should fire the Nook marketing team.

(We'll call it K6, of course.)
Actually it will be the K7. The K6 is the Kindle Fire. If the new Kindle goes by the format that the other Kindles' firmware does it should be Version 7. The Kindle Fire uses version 6 firmware.

I agree they don't keep with the kindle metaphor but neither did "touch"...and it isn't poetic or catchy, haha.

I am OK with the special offers, I think of this as sort of a free screen blanker that is changed automatically for me.

Note taken.
K7 is fine by me.
Even takes us a step closer to the ultimate ereader, the K9.
