The Paperwhite has a much better reputation regarding speed than the Nook...

As far as the memory goes: To quote myself on a different thread,

I'm sure somewhere along the way you can get to a computer and swap them for new ones.
(Same logic applies to every other eReader, including the Kindle Paperwhite which has (shudder) a measly 1.5 GB and about a year's worth of books.)
So if you're going to give up on the Paperwhite just because of that, well, .

But many people enjoy their Kobo for much better reasons, because Kobo is much more customizable than the Kindle. It depends if you actually value that.
