I'm not crazy about a 5" screen ... so I'd opt for the Pocketbook Pro 902 which is $199 and available direct from PB or through the Amazon e-store (!) including to the nether-regions (like Canada).

I may also be the only advocate for dual devices: I have both a Kindle 3 and a Kobo and each does its own thing very well, giving me native non-DRM access to mobi and epub and DRM of each as well. This gives me the flexibility to shop for commercial titles and stick to the lowest price; borrow library books; and still have Calibre in the background for "other" choices.

Schlepping two devices on holiday is virtually the same as carrying one; and then the other half always has a choice, too.
