Any tablet is an alternative, and there are the ereader apps for any tablet. If the Kobo doesn't suit, there are lots of alternatives.

I would, as a veteran Palm person, be wary of Blackberry, even with the recent, severely reduced Playbook prices. The Playbook has a unique operating system (based on QNX Neutrino) and the latest upgrade is already months late. Plus, apps developers are plenty busy designing for iOS and Android. To me, this song sounds depressingly familiar. (BTW, I didn't buy a HP TouchPad at any price.)
