And "me too". I've had mine for a couple months, since around the second shipment arrived at our local Chapters. I've also made more time to read than I have in the last few years. I've struggled a bit with the different paradigms - the concept of a "library" that resides at Kobo, then getting books to my desktop and then to my Kobo - via Kobo desktop application, via ADE, PDFs via drag&drop, and via Calibre (I've only dabbled a tiny bit with Calibre).
I had a twinge of buyer's remorse at the announcement of the new Kindle, but then I smartened up. I am able to borrow library books (albeit availability is problematic; I hope that improves over time). And, the keyboard on the Kindle is positioned where my left thumb goes when I read my Kobo, so I can't imagine it being comfortable to hold. I don't find books in the Kobo store "not available in Canada". I have my iPhone with me if I need to look up a word in the dictionary, or Google a historical fact. Or use the Kobo app to buy a book RIGHT NOW and have it delivered wirelessly in seconds.
The Kobo is an easy-to-use reader that fits my needs.
