So, as a stopgap, you chose a device that only meets one of your requirements while waiting for a price drop on a device that will meet only two. And not even the top two.

Apparently the HD is slightly better in resolution:

I got it for $55, I'm hoping that amazon will release a new kindle (this or next month I believe) so that the voyage/PW3 will drop so I will sell and buy one of those. Kobo doesn't unfortunately have a big aftermarket.
There apparently is a jailbreak that will be coming soon hopefully:

I think I will get a kobo H2O if I can find it cheaply, because it is the best product for my needs, just don't have the money for it now.
In retrospect the PW2 is suboptimal for reading manga because of its slow processor and its non expandable 2GB is very poor for keeping a lot of manga. In a few years, I think there will be tons of better (and hopefully cheaper) options from Chinese vendors.
