I travel a lot, too. I used to take my Kindle everywhere, including on trips. iPad meets all my reading needs now, though. I still have my Kindle, in case I accidentally kill my iPad. If that happened, I would get another tablet asap. I'm hoping that competitors will come up with even better tablets soon.
About reading in direct sunlight: I've never cared for it, especially while growing up in the tropics.
