For what it's worth, my 950 is my primary reading device. I really like the 7" screen. I had the older 900 and upgraded to the 950 in November. I thought the 7" was a weird aspect ratio before I used it, but now it just seems natural. The 950 is very light. It's very similar in size to my Kindle 3. I read a lot of Overdrive libary books, and the 950 works great for that. I also buy from Kobo frequently since they have great prices and lots of coupons. Library and Kobo books both work fine on my Nook Color too.
Sorry, I'm not sure about the warranty.
Have fun shopping!
