I would (personally) choose the PocketBook, but that's partly because I use Linux and PocketBook has ADE built-in (so you can buy books from anywhere without ADE on your computer). Kobo's advantages are many more adjustments for increments of font "boldness." and other adjustments (But I find myself tinkering with the Kobos more because I can never quite "get it right.") Kobos also seem pickier about their fonts and ePub specifications. My PocketBooks (using the Constantia font) have clean display, full page (without the occasional empty spaces at the bottom of the page). PocketBooks also have the page turn keys (which I like). I don't know if I would use TTS(?) text to speech, or listen to audio books on it, but it would be nice to have those choices.
But the main reason I like the PocketBooks is because you can get your ePub books from anywhere (even from Kobo). And you can also sync these books across devices, using PocketBook's Cloud. Just download the .ascm file and send it to the PocketBook (online or via USB) and it will download the book — sync it to PocketBook's Cloud and it's available on online.
Anyway, that's my opinion. The Clara HD and PocketBook HD 3 are both nice devices, I don't think you could go wrong with either.
