On the other hand, it is quite bad on pdf (at least as compared with the 5" pocketbook), so I gave up reading pdf documents completely (a big minus as for work I have zillions of pdf documents), while with the 360 I had no issues even on such a small screen.

So my doubt is whether to hold off any decision for a few more months (I have another reader, but as a 9.6" is definitely not portable) in case something better comes along (Pocketbook has discontinued the production of 360).
It is going to depend on a lot of factors.

Are you looking to buy online books? Kobo bookstore has a decent selection of books.

I don't know much about the Trekstor Pyrus since it is not sold in Canada.

Do you plan to buy the Trekstor Pyrus online?

Maybe this review will help.
