Actually they both have very "nasaly" and high-pitched voices to me, both of which I find annoying in reviews.

And after listening to the review anyway, doesn't the Kindle Paperwhite have capacitive touch? They go on praising that the Kobo Aura is the very first capacitive touch e-ink screen.

And all I see still is a lot of wasted space in the text.

There's really nothing about the new Aura that tempts me in the least. Especially the bit shinier finish which gives more glare.
For me it's partly that they're basically idiots and partly because they take 16 minutes for a video that has 5 actual minutes of information.
