I have a Sony Reader and I absolutely love it! Mine doesn't have anything fancy like color or wi-fi but I dont feel like I want for anything. It has a looooooong battery life, I can read on it pretty much every day for weeks before I have to recharge it. If you dont want all the bells and whistles I would recommend the reader! I think they have newer models too that have color and wifi as well. Plus the Sony Reader Library has lots and lots of free books, and new ones come out all the time. I have heard lots of things about Amazon and B&N not having much in the way of free books.....
