Barry, since you've used both, do you feel that the software is better on one or the other? And how about actual book rendering? I had the Nook ST, but I know the software changed a bit since my model, whereas the Kobo stays pretty similar across devices.

I remember my Nook hyphenated a lot more often than my Kobo (which is more likely to adjust word spacing). I preferred the more frequent hyphenation.

Another thing I liked about the Nook was the permeant 'return to book' button in the upper left corner (when not already reading). From what I've seen, the Glowlight Plus retained that.

I like that Kobo only shows tiles that you use. The bottom third of the home page of my Nook was taken with store recommendations that I wasn't interested in.
