I might loan the Elipsa instead. Surely harder to misplace and I find it useless. I wonder should I buy a spare Sage? |

Why won't they leave it alone?" I'm worried that overall devices will get less hackable. It would be easy for them to clamp down on any modification at all. I just don't know when to buy my case of ereaders. |

The Libra Colour is totally inferior to the Libra or Libra 2 or Sage for reading novels. What if they do the same with the Sage? There is no denim 7″ Kobo now, only a fake denim made of nylon. |

I would not buy a spare Sage. You could end up buying one and Kobo could turn around and come out with a new updated Sage.

When I was using my Aura H2O, I always had an option to buy another if mine was to become damaged. Then the Libra 2 came out and the Aura H2o was discontinued. I bought the Libra 2. Now there is no Libra 2 and the Libra Colour is no replacement. |

I read primarily in the dark late at night, so I would be using the light. If an eReader can last a week on a charge while using the light, that would be good enough for me.
I have trouble reading my Fire HD8 at night. The font is too small, but the next size larger is way too large with only about 1 paragraph on a page. Of course, that is not an E-reader screen. I need 7.8-8.5" screen that is very clear to read at night. |

I'm willing to switch to Onyx. Is it better than the Kindle?

Out of curiosity, what makes the LC not a replacement of the L2?
