An extra $100-200 isn't a show stopper, but if it's not needed I may as well save the money for the next device.
If you aren't storing pictures, music, and video I think you will be fine. I've got quite a few books I've downloaded (and stored) but have used very little of the memory. But, there are a lot of tempting apps for the iPad. If reading is your main use you can compare it to the Kindle with 2 GB of memory that can store thousands of books.
