On the negative, the Kobo is a bit slower and the software more clunky.

Thanks for the reply, I thought people were offended by the out-topic.
I have been holding my purchase for a while. Today, is the day I will decided which one to get.
My reasons to go with Voyge, as it got higher rates while Amazon's kindle seems (in my opinion) more durable with less QC issues than Kobo. I have read many reviews in which it seems that kindle is more reliable brand, yet I know Glo HD is a newer device and QC might have been improved. Anyhow, because either device I get I won't be able to send it back (going to get it shipped from another country).
For Glo HD, the software seems more opened, could upgrade SD card, cheaper, could increase the font weight. Not sure how epub 3 compared to kindles format, and also the backlight and weither Voyage would be easily jailbroken without breaking it apart
Regarding the PDF, in which way the software going to make a difference?
And do you guys convert pdf's into other ebook formats (for none novels)?
I know I flooded this reply with many questions, it's more or less about opening my thoughts.
