Probably still won't work in Canada... :P
I wouldn't mind having a Kindle DX - I think the big screen would be excellent for reading larger scale pdf articles. I also find the e-ink so much easier on the eyes. I like my Playbook, but my Kindle e-reader is still my fav device.
Forgive me if you've already told me, but do you know if Kindles can read e-books from Chapters?
There are some utilities that let you change (from kobo to kindle and reverse) formats - I think Shell was talking about them once....
Try calibre.

Calibre comes up so much I wonder if we should have a forum just for 'lifehacking' style tips, cyber or otherwise. The main thread could be a constantly updated series of links to both utilities and 'how to' articles.
