Which one would you personally choose between Paperwhite 2 and Kobo H2O?

I mostly read my own epub books and I don't care much about either ecosystem.
Hmmm.... if you are reading epub books, you really have no choice. The PW2 out of the box does not read epubs. Not sure if the newest firmware for the PW2 has changed the font support but you had to hack the PW2 to allow installing user fonts which is one of my favourite items on my Kobo.

Either device can use Coolreader or Koreader to allow supporting more formats. On the Kobo, it's a relatively simple install using any of the multiple techniques. On the Kindle, installation is a bit more complex with jailbreaking being the first step.
