I wish Kobo would accept my Kindle as partial payment for one of their units. Can't wait to switch away from Bezos.

Made the switch myself not long ago. Only thing that annoyed me: I was still forced to connect the device to "activate" it. Even though I use VPN on my router, it still seems silly that the device I purchased requires such activation. Anyway, after that I installed KoReader (along with a font called ChareInk6SP) and started to transfer epubs from Calibre via KoReader's Calibre plugin. If you have a large collection on Kindle I would suggest you first try and get those into your Calibre before doing anything else.
