When you are reading academic articles/pdfs for several hours a day, the screen resolution makes a difference. The screen size allows for comfortable pdf reading, IMO - I don't have to zoom in to read.
In addition, I also use Sente for bibliography management (this syncs with my mac), but you can also use Mendeley or Papers.
My recommendation is to definitely go for a tablet rather than an e-ink reader. I've outlined some of the reasons here, in other thread:

I've found that my iPad has greatly improved my academic work flow, and I warmly recommend it. If you can afford it, I'd go for the 3gen. |
Thank you for your answer with great detail! Since
Nexus 10 is coming out, will you recommend this tablet?
