 Kobos work best with Calibre. You can't get the series info for sideloaded books to your Kobo without using Calibre, for example. If you're not a Calibre user, then I'm not sure that a Kobo would be much better for you than a Kindle. Besides reading epubs without converting, of course.
Never used a Pocketbook, so I don't know about them.
