I bought a Kobo Glo because I wanted the e-ink display, not a fan of reading books on an LCD screen. It also became my main choice since it accepts the standard .epub format, allowing you to borrow digital books from libraries. It also came in handy when I wanted to convert my existing paperback collection to digital format but didn't want to re-buy books I already owned. I really like the Kindle hardware, but being Amazon only swayed me away
