Thanks everybody! All of your feedback was very helpful. After giving it some good thought this weekend, I decided to go with the Kobo Glo HD. While I was interested in a bigger screen, I think ultimately I like the 6" form factor and light weight for traveling and reading for long periods of time. The videos I've seen have been very impressive - the screen looks really nice.

I preordered on Chapters and with the Canadian exchange rate and shipping it still comes under the price of the Paperwhite. I even will be in Montreal for vacation at the end of May so will be able to exchange it if I am more impressed when I check out the H20 at one of the stores in person.
