LovetoRL,
I recently switched from Kindle Oasis 2 to the Kobo Forma mainly for the larger screen size. After reading 2 books, I can say the upgrade was a good move. I found that reading in Landscape orientation is my best option for optimal viewing.
I ordered directly from Kobo. It took 9 days from order to delivery in Austin, Texas Via UPS.
Managing the Kindle is simpler, but Calibre works well and offers more flexibility. It guarantees you will always have copies of your books and provides the ability to add plug-ins that provide additional functionality. The integration with Overdrive is a huge advantage over Amazon if you utilize your local library.
My only other concern was the low availability of Kobo’s. Normally with my luck it means a newer model with some major improvements will come out just after the return window closes.
