>> ... leaning towards the Kobo. I haven't actually touched/seen a Nook in person ...
The Nook is noticeably heavier. Its touch screen implementation is touchy.
Even if I were purchasing anew today, I truly believe I'd go with a Kobo - but that is a conscious decision to NOT be "connected" ... because I know I'd be messing around with connectivity. I am enjoying READING BOOKS on my Kobo.
At this point in time, just go out and get something so that you can play with it and start using for the weekend! Either unit will prove to be an enjoyable experience. Will something "better" happen in three months with a new model? Probably. Will Borders drop the retail price of the Kobo a little bit in a month or two - or quadruple our Rewards points?? Probably. But get one NOW and start ENJOYING!
