Here are my general thoughts.
The Nook is a really nice device. But if you can't order books from B&N in Canada, its biggest advantage is lost. It essentially becomes identical to the Sony (Unless it can actually download ebooks from other sites over the web, which I don't think it can right now).
The Sony is a wonderful piece of Kit. Arguably the nicest device from a purely reading standpoint. That being said, it does lack wireless, so if that is a must have for you, then it may not be a good choice. That being said, I have rarely found need for wireless on my reader. EInk is slow enough that it is usually preferable to have a computer available.
The Kobo wireless. Certainly a nice design. The wireless might be nice.. but the Devil is in the details, and we really don't have much details yet. Most importantly, does the wireless allow you to buy books with the Kobo without a computer and or download books from free sites or do you have to buy on your computer and then the Kobo will download them directly to the device. If the latter, the wireless is nice, but hardly more convenient than plugging the device to your computer (Particularly since most of the books I read are free books from the Public Domain or Publisher give aways).
Now they are all great readers... you just need to decide what your priorities are... Are they reading books, or is it buying books and/or web browsing.
