Deciding Between Kindle 3 and Kobo Touch

Hi all, i am looking for a good ereader with a long battery life which can handle PDFs with a lot of images, im talking PDFs that are upwards of 200MB

I am looking at both the Kobo and the Kindle 3 but cant decide so i have a few questions

Do these devices NEED registration? If so what sort of info do i need to provide for this registration process? Either device is going to be bought from a store and not online by the way

Can i put my own ebooks onto it? I have a load of PDF files and other ebook formats to add to the device i buy, are any of these devices have any DRM restrictions i should be aware of? Can i load any and all content even PDFs that are? (SECURE)

Both devices have a web browser right? Which one is better?

What other features do these devices have?

I have read that the kobo does not have a folders feature and the kindle does have this in ther form of collections? If so how many collections can i have at one time?

I may also consider the Kindle basic? (the non touch silver one) any disadvantages to this one?

I dont really like the fact that the kindle has limited memory of 4GB and the Kobos can be up to 32GB? Is this true and does any SD card work with the Kobo? Also the Kobo only has 1GB of space available right?

thanks
