Or am I better off making myself wait until a new generation is released, presumably following the autumn pattern set so far?
Can you not keep the H2O and get a Voyage? No need to "switch" if you don't want to. Use the H2O at home, take the Voyage on the go, as it is smaller.

I find the Voyage screen to be superior to any other screen I have used.

I prefer many, many things about the Kobo, though. I am holding my mental breath for the announcement of a 6" Kobo with a Voyage screen. Although since I just last month got the Voyage, I'll likely have to wait til Christmas to get the next Kobo.

That said, I feel I will keep both the Voyage and the new Kobo. The Voyage for it's extreme reliability, if nothing else. Not that a Kobo is unreliable. They do have their quirks, at times, (those quirks could be the result of all the fiddling I do, though). The Voyage is rock solid dependable, (probably because I've never had the opportunity to hack it).
