Had a Kobo first. Drove to Buffalo to look at a Nook, bought one on the spot. Returned the Kobo. For the same pricepoint the Kobo is an inferior product.

The screen is vastly better on the Nook, trust me. Go hold the two untis side by sidee if you get a chance. Anyone with half decent eyesight will admit the Nook puts Kobo to shame.

I personally can deal with the shorter battery life of the Nook and was happy when I saw that a wall charger adapter was included with the purchase rather than having to spend money on a third party product. I hate charging through usb via computer.

I bought it purely for reading and could do without the wi-fi ( I honestly never use it). I mainly chose the Nook over the Kobo because it is a more polished product. For the same price the decision was no-brainer for me.
