That doesn't have warm lighting or water proofing. They could also add Bluetooth page turning. And haptic buttons. And a flush screen.

A warm light would be something new that can be done for the basic.

Simple stylus support for the PW. It would be like having a small notepad with you

As my arthritis in my hands has gotten worse, I am gaining a new appreciation for 6” readers. I have been using my Nook GL4e and Kindle PW4. Neither has the warm light which I do miss. The Nook has buttons on both sides which I love. I will be really surprised if Amazon releases anything that I will be interested in buying.

One site I drove by claims that both the new Kindles will have the latest ACeP/Gallery colour displays much like the reMarkable Paper Pro. One will be an 8" replacement for the Oasis while the other will be a new Scribe version with buttons.

This is getting to be fun.

Well, I guess we can imagine which Kindles are going to be replaced.

Amazon US has the PW and SE in stock. The Basic Black is available only as certified refurbished. Denim is now fully out of stock. The Basic kids bundle is also now out of stock. Paperwhite Kids bundle version has the two day shipping.

Interesting. I'm also seeing this.

I think I was looking at the "Denim" version when I reported it was unavailable.

Nah! That would make it one hell of a mess.

Sure, add the warm light and waterproofing. But don't add any sort of buttons. Don't add a flush screen. We've seen what happened the last time Amazon added a flush screen to a 6" Reader. It became the disaster that was the PW4.

And they have added it to all the Oases. Those certainly weren't a disaster.

Haptic buttons, warm light, waterproofing, flush screen, and bluetooth page turning on a 6" reader sounds great. Time for an upgraded Voyage please!

Yeah, me too. After using other platforms, there is no way I would go back to a kindle no matter hardware they produced.

That being said, I would love for them to add some cool new products. Both to push the rest of the market and for those who prefer using a kindle.

That right there is my dream. It's a longshot but one can hope. The only other thing I'd add is USB-C and OTG capability.
