Do you WANT to read PDFs? PDF is not an eBook format.

For reading novels, the Sony PRS-505 is excellent. Yes, eInk screens do take about 1 second to refresh, but that's faster than you can turn the page of a book, and you very quickly get used to it.

The Reader fully supports Vista - both 32 and 64-bit versions.

I have to ask - is there any particular reason that you only considered the Sony Reader and the Kindle? There are many other excellent eBook readers available besides those two.
