I, too, got a smartphone this summer, and my experience was nearly identical to yours, except with a Kindle instead of a Kobo. I use the Kindle app on the phone, and use it sometimes when I go to the park. In fact, part of the reason I got the phone was because I found myself carting my phone, my iPod, and my compact camera to the park. The smartphone does all of the above plus tracks my walking mileage. The idea to read on it came later.
I could never switch to reading on the phone exclusively or even often, but it's great when I find myself without my Kindle.
