Just bought a Glo from Chapters simply because they have a free Roots leather case promotion on now, which is better than nothing. Wish they had a money-off promo on as they do with the Mini right now.

Sadly my KTouch died yesterday after a drop. I'm in Korea where none of the mainstream ereaders are available locally (only massively overpriced iRivers). While the Glo is quite cheap in Japan - $100 give or take - they won't ship abroad, and the Glo doesn't seem to be available online from anywhere in the US, so I bought in Canada and am having it shipped here. From what I could gather in terms of hardware the Paperwhite has the advantage of lower minimum brightness and 'whiter' light, while the Glo is more evenly lit, but the more featureful firmware of the Kobo won me over (I know it's buggy from having owned a Touch, but I can deal with that as a trade-off for cbz/r support, much better type options, epub, etc.)
