My main concerns is if it's worth the $100 different to familiarize myself with a new ecosytem, consider that I have to convert tens of thousands of EPUBs to MOBIs.
I'm going to assume that you are looking at the 6.8" Paperwhite 8GB?

Your new PW will require all collections to be done manually since Amazon protects the database from external access.

As for series? In theory my PW should have series but so far, it does not seem to have any desire to display series information for Amazon purchased books. For sideloaded books, even that option does not exist.

As someone who own a PW and multiple Kobo ereaders, the convenience of using calibre and a Kobo together is worth the extra cost.
