It so happens I also like the contrast better on Kobo. The background is less grey
compared to my Kindle 2.

I had the chance to play around with a couple friends Kobos before getting mine.

Things that sold me:

-Touch screen (tried a Kindle, I couldnt stand the keyboard interface)
-Pearl eInk screen
-support for ePub, being able to get books from library
-reasonable price

I wrote about my experience here.
