Most Read Format: Epub, Mobi, PDF
Looking for: good dpi, ease and comfort for the eyes
Do not need: waterproof
Habit: Usually download most of what I read online, but once in a while when I can't find something, I would buy from the store, so having a store where I am guranteed to be able to get the book i want is still somewhat important. (amazon?)

Wifi not important to me
Will use Calibre for conversion and transferring of files.

Does this boil down to either Kindle Paperwhite ($119.99), or the Kobo Aura Edition 2 ($99.99)? Paperwhite seems to have 300 dpi, is there a big difference between 300 dpi and 212 dpi?

Is Paperwhite something that best fit my description?

How's conversion from epub to mobi or azw3? Is it 100% perfect?
I used to have a really old kindle and 1/2 the times the conversion ended up creating weirdly looking documents where the margins, font, spacing are all screwed up. Is this not an issue anymore these days?
What format are most of your ebooks in now?
If mobi go with the kindle. If epub go with the kobo. If pdf, go with a tablet.
