I still have an old Kindle and it still gets months of battery life. I occasionally read comics so this may get me to upgrade.

I don't understand what the point is with having an e-reader with a colour screen when the screen is so small. Anything I read that would benefit from a colour screen is either a PDF or a comic, and those suffer from tiny letters on a screen under 10 inches.

Or is there a lot of newer books that have images and such that aren't PDF/CBR based?

Comic book sized would be perfect
