I just looked up the Kobo Touch. It seems like a really good ereader, and I've been able to find it somewhere cheap. This might be the ereader for me. Thanks for telling me about it.
Edit: Don't worry about it. If I do buy the Kobo, I'd probably buy it from somewhere like Amazon or Ebay anyway, so the location isn't too important as long it can be found on one of those sites.
