For me, the deal-breaker on the Kindle was no external memory card. Between Fictionwise, Baen, and Project Gutenberg, I had over 3,000 ebooks when I bought my Nook First Edition, and when it's far worse now. With the Nook, I can keep my entire library with my Nook. With a Kindle, I have to rely on wifi or get a 3G.

I am hoping that B&N will come out with a higher resolution Nook Glow. I have an STR, but I'd get a Glow if it had the same resolution as the Kobo and Kindle.
