I like both Kindles - but only for casual reads.
I wouldn't use either of these for "professional" documents.
Usually (just my guess) your textbooks will be PDFs.
a.) Kindles only offer very basic PDF-functionality.
b.) Notes and annotations on both Kindles are solved very nicely. But I find myself preferring those functions on touchscreen units. For example, I prefer scribbling directly within the text - like I would do it on paper.
