Amazon has a reputation for rock-solid firmware, far more so than any other ereader. Then again, this may be because they don't offer tons of customizations like Kobo, they keep the whole experience much more stable. I suppose it depends on what you prefer.
Amazon of course has the best store, and if you've bought many pbooks from them, you may want to take a serious look at Kindle Matchbook: https://www.amazon.com/gp/digital/ep-landing-page
If you don't mind going to some lengths to manage all your books on your computer, using calibre, then you can use all of these books on a Kobo too (it's really quite easy once you get the hang of it).

Eschwartz, had no idea about Matchbook and was actually wondering why Amazon hasn't thought about that... Since I bought all those books from them and all... Wonderful.
Once more, I'm think going for a Kindle. With matchbook, it means I'll have tons of books already, and having the device directly integrated into the ecosystem seems more proper.
I wouldn't very much mind using calibre -- I'm a computer geek, after all -- but it just doesn't seems to make sense to go through all the hassle if I'm only going to buy from Amazon.
Again, I'm thinking I'm gonna miss the extra inch on the Aura HD, but...
