...you're thinking of jumping from Nook Touch(I presume) to Kobo Touch, and I was thinking of dumping my Kobo WiFi for a Nook Touch since the 2GB uSD card w/50 books or whatever it was deal plus Nook's features actually work on everything...
About the only thing that is still keeping me thinking about a Kobo Touch(going to swing by a Borders today and see if they have one) is that their browser will eventually(or does it already now?) support downloading of supported formats, while I'm not sure about Nook Touch's browser download capabilities(maybe have to go by B&N today as well I guess, unfortunately they're about equidistant from my house but in diametrically opposing locations...)

My understanding is that Kobo will be bringing those features your jumping shop for relatively soon. So why jump ship just because its not yet here. regardless bottom line is " what ever reader you do go with there will always be problems" and " its your call no matter what". I am certain that no matter what way you decide it will be the right choice for yourself.
Btw you can download ebooks from kobos web browser no problem
