They are really better to manage the books?
I don't use collections myself, but yes in general Kobo's are much easier to manage collections on, if you use Calibre. Calibre can generate the collections and put all of the books in them for you instead of you having to do things manually. The basic on device process for a Kobo is very similar to a Kindle, it's in conjunction with Calibre where the Kobo really gets a boost in ease of collection/shelf management.

Here's some info on it from the Wiki...

Both companies make good devices IMO. The Kobo is more "tweakable" in general (no need to jailbreak, it comes that way) while I find the Kindle is more of a "it just works" solution (it's what I bought my Mom).
