I still have an old Kindle and it still gets months of battery life. I occasionally read comics so this may get me to upgrade.

I'd recommend everyone to buy a Kobo over these, it's much easier to read your own .pdf and .epub files than on a Kindle.

Where's the one with unlimited internet connectivity for the lifetime of the device...I'm not seeing it.

My wife has the oasis that has cellular connectivity so she can read newspapers, rss feeds, etc. But I don't see a Kobu with that feature.

I don't think Kobo has that option. I just toggle on my wifi hotspot on my phone though and that works just fine.
