Not all people were lucky with their Libras, though - apparently some devices have green-tinted frontlight. The light on mine is perfect, however. My Oasis 3 was yellower (when not using the warm light) and it bothered me in some environments.
I got my hands on a Paperwhite Signature (setting up for a family member). As JSWolf implies later in this this thread, the screen is comparable to my Oasis 3. The more I twiddled with it the more I liked it. I did miss the buttons when I used it in bed - I do a lot of reading there. I didn't miss the buttons as much when I read with the Paperwhite in a chair.

Your post makes me curious about the Kobos. When my Oasis declines further I'll be looking that way. Thanks!
