Sadly, fw5.6.x makes it impossible to jailbreak, so Voyage and KT2 are out and the PW2 must be jailbroken before it gets an OTA update.

Amazon has a better CS reputation, but on the other hand it is more awkward to manage the Kindle.
But if you want a high resolution Carta screen and the ability to manage collections via Calibre, the H2O is currently the best bet.

Hmmm, let me think... did I disagree?

No, in fact I did not touch upon the issue.

I stand by what I said.

The Kindle (certain firmwares) is an alternative whose talking points are the CS reputation and still being able to manage collections.

But while we are on that topic, some would debate that the Voyage has a better screen.
Or so I gather from reading your heated arguments with them in other threads.
