Normally, I don't like going with the high market share vendor -- never bought a GM car -- but this is an exception.
Not having an email address to send documents to the device -- big disadvantage.
No PC browser button -- another big disadvantage.
Then there's newspapers and magazines. This isn't as big an advantage for Kindle as it was until earlier this year, when US residents could purchase the heart of the New York Times for $1.99 a month. That killer app is now gone. But buying the eInk Sunday Philadelphia Inquirer for 49 cents is still a tremendous deal for me. Plus, I'm grandfathered into a good Washington Post deal on the Fire.
Kobo seems to be just for books. That's fine if you only read books.
I realize that one can side-load non-book content onto a Kobo. I've never had a Kobo, so apologize if I'm missing something.
