For what a Kindle is able to do, a Kobo is far better value. Library access that will save you a fortune over time and cheaper, too.

This is somewhere we'll have to agree to disagree. While I own neither a Kobo nor a Kindle, I have seen and compared both devices and I don't see a greater value to the Kobo. It is cheaper, but it's not as good either - and I don't think the lower price makes up for the fact it doesn't serve its primary purpose as well.
