I'm unsure whether the Voyager is worth a $38CDN premium over the H2O though, so there is that.

It's just a thought exercise for me. I'm a Kobo fan through and through. Doubt I'll ever buy a Kindle unless they're the only e-ink option left.
I'm glad they priced it so high. Otherwise I might have ordered one.

I still plan to order the H2O. I want the Carta screen.

I agree with you.....the Kobo is so much better than the Kindle, to me. I was still caught up in the frenzy....that 300 dpi is so tempting. The price sucked the wind right out of my sails and brought a return to sanity. Kobo all the way!
