If you're located in the EU, it's the other way round. Just look at this screenshot... a Kindle touch would cost me 157 euros. Moreover, it does not include a cover or a charger. Throw these in, and the cost rises to 200 euros or more. It's the same for many e-book manufacturers since in most EU countries you can only order from the US.
Now, for 170 euros I got an Onyx i62HD. For a mere 13 euros more I got high definition screen, more than double internal storage, a microsd slot, and support for all e-book formats. Plus, it came with a cover and a charger.
Of course it would be different if I were living in the US. But if you're located in the EU, it's quite clear who the winner is - and it will be similar when you compare the Kindle Paperwhite with the Onyx Firefly.
