My wife doesn't get into the ebook thing, she prefers bound books, but the H20 has her rethinking that. She doesn't like the Voyage.

The only thing I didn't like was when he first extinguished the natural light, i.e. closed the curtains, blinds, whatever, and turned off the indoor lighting, the H2O looked extremely yellow at first. That worried me. As he went through the different settings of the lighting, etc. of both models, though, it quickly became obvious to me that I preferred the H2O over the KV in all areas. I had always wanted to see the screen and the fonts of the H2O in action and I was duly impressed. Add to that the SD card so that I can carry all my books with me - I'm a book Ho - and I definitely want one. Now, please.
I love my PW2s, and could return one, but won't and I see no reason not to have the best of both worlds. Kindle for KU if I decide to use it and H2O for the freaking amazing screen, general superior options in the UI, IMO, and the SD.
If my son didn't use his "ithings" to read I'd give him one, but he's never been interested in Kindles and only interested in ebooks in the last two years. Getting him to pare down his considerable collection of DTBs was a major effort on my part. He eventually realized the sanity of it when moving to another state. He's still not a Kindle guy, though.
