The new Paperwhite has probably tipped the balance in its favour, but manually doing collections on the Paperwhite (after being able to use the collections plugin for calibre with the KK) will be a drag.

I'll take another look at the Kobo devices on display at Chapters once I'm back in the city and wait for the reviews on the new Paperwhite before buying anything, no rush since the KK's are still functioning.
Sincerely, seeing from your device list, I would not advise you to get the Aura HD. I got it, and although the hardware is good (not excellent, but good), the software, or the permanent changes that kobo brings to it, is a disaster. I am back to reading on my PW, just ordered the PW2, but I do not regret the Aura a minute.
