I've been using a kobo aura hd for a year and didn't even consider going to the H20 because its additions were unattractive to me. When the Voyage came out, I instantly gave the Kobo to my father and pre-ordered one because its features were just what I had been waiting for.
A year from now we can discuss if Amazon or Kobo was right. Or perhaps they both are.

I did precisely NOT that! I even wrote that At the end of my comment. I was pointing out that it's a strange move for Amazon to separate dedicated from "undedicated" readers instead of "raising the bottom line" for everyone according to random criteria.
