Own (and love) a PRS505: Is the Nook Touch or Kobo Touch right for me?

Hey guys,

I want to upgrade from my PRS505. It's a great reader and still works just fine, but it's fairly busted up and I'd like to get my hands (and eyes) on the new pearl e-ink screens.

Initially, I was looking to get the PRS650 but its price is just not very attractive with all the competition in the market now. I didn't mind paying the premium when the Sony readers were among the only ones that supported epubs, but now most of them do. The PRS350 is reasonably priced, but after testing one, I feel that the 5 inch screen is too small for me.

I think out of these two, I would prefer the Nook Touch because I like to have physical page turning buttons and I like the way it handles screen refreshes and the dictionary popup. Unfortunately, I'm in Canada and they currently only serve US customers.

Later today, I will go to a Chapters store and try out the Kobo.

What do you guys think?
