Still thinking

I am starting to narrow it down to Nook or a Pocketbook e-reader. I liked the PB360, but when I saw the 5in. Sony I felt that the screen may be too small in the long run.
OK, so I went on youtube and checked out a few hands on videos for the PB302. Some the screen glare was obvious and others it was not so much. I have also read about the PB602 on this forum being the same as 302 just without glare. Here are my questions:
1) What is the price difference between the PB302, PB602, and Nook?
2) If all I will probably be reading is E-pub and the Nook has access to that in B&N store, google books, and even Sony bookstore compatibility, how does that compare with PB readers?
3) Any trouble with format going to other pay bookstores for PB readers compared to using B&N bookstore for Nook?
4) Does latest PB302 have less glare, is it positional, or do you have to wait for 602? Will 602 come with the 4GB card and leather case like the 302? How much compared to 302? How else will it be different?
5) What bookstore options do I have in the US if I go with PB and not Nook? I was wondering if there are disadvantages if you buy a e-reader not linked to a large bookseller?
This is so hard to decide! I don't know if I am overthinking or if this is what most people have gone through when they looked for their e-readers?
I just want to make sure that I won't have any trouble reading lots of books on what ever e-reader I decide to buy. Thanks for the great advice so far as I am narrowed down to 2 brands for the most part. I look forward to the answers to my latest questions.
