I'm just saying you know in advance that Amazon ebooks mainly have DRM and are designed to be used on many devices (all of them free apps) ... just not the handheld ereader you own and enjoy that runs ePub. So, by all means look elsewhere.

I thoroughly enjoy my Kobo and use it for content on sale at Kobo, not for sale at Amazon or library books. I get great value from it. But I do prefer the Amazon bookstore by a long shot, and the Kindle 3 far outclasses the Kobo in its current iteration.
