I can't speak for the H2O, but as I pointed out before, the Kobo Aura HD is thicker and has a smaller screen than the Kindle DXG.
Yet I have not had a screen issue with any on the Kindle DX and DXG units I've had (a total of four), while out of four Aura HDs, three have had screen issues.
As I also pointed out earlier, the Kindle DXG is noticeably better built than the Aura HD and it has almost no flex. The Voyage definitely looks considerably better built than the Aura HD, too.
Thickness matters little, if the fit is poor.
Add to this the poor support from Kobo and for me, there is no contest between the Kindle and Kobo.
If only Kindle made a 7" or 8" reader.
