When my Sony dies, I was thinking I'd get a Kobo but now maybe I'll do a Kindle or iPad mini.

Have a look at the price history of this book on luzme:

First thing to note is that there are two editions of this book, a UK and a US edition. For some reason there has been a massive price increase for the US edition, and there are two prices at Apple.
For some reason Apple has both editions, the UK edition for $14.99 and the US edition for $59.99. Other US retailers only have the US editions. Note that the book is discountable at Kobo, so you can use a promo code, there are 35% codes available right now or you can wait for a competition and get a 45% or 55% code with a bit of patience.
So the prices for the US edition from US retailers are:
Apple: $59.99
Kobo: $53.99
Google: $47.39
B&N: $41.99
Amazon: $38.99
Kobo: $35.10 (with 35% promo code.)
