How I want: Font, font size, line spacing, light or no light, and no handed in bed (other than to turn pages).
For me all good reasons to have a KOBO.

That was one of my initial motivations for not opting for the kpw, but I've realized ebook conversion is a piece of cake in calibre and I've not had a problem whatsoever in sending my epubs to kindle this way. There's no library though, granted. Still if I were to use one via overdrive I 'd probably opt for a sony instead.
In terms of battery life and reading light, these are markedly good on any good eink device, kpw, nook. You seem to be well versed in ereaders to be aware of that.
Every reader has font and line adjustments, the kobo has more than most, but the hacks to get these to other readers are very simple. Much simpler than debugging the kobo imo. As for no light, in the kpw it can go so low as to be virtually off. But I 've not met a single person who uses their kindles with the light off unless in very bright sunlight.
