Kindle- all other things being equal (not much between the hardware really), books are largely cheaper, and Amazon has a huge catalogue of free/nearly free self published stuff, Kobo is pretty much restricted to out of copyright staff for free.

And the complete [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Hitchhikers-Guide-Galaxy-ebook/dp/B007FSBVY4/ref=sr_1_3?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1331483073&sr=1-3 ]Hitchhikers Guide set(Trilogy of Five) [/url]is £2.19 on Kindle today... 🙂
