I personally prefer to buy from B&N or Kobo because they support ePub, but will occasionally buy from Amazon if they have a book I need. I also purchase technical books from O'Reilly fairly often.

I switch back and forth between B&N and Kobo because B&N is occasionally cheaper, but I like what Kobo is doing and want to support their style of development.
Ditto ditto. I follow the same buying pattern for the same reasons. I support Kobo because they support ePub. But I also like the option of buying from Amazon, as they have a wider selection.

I have a Sony reader - however, i no longer buy from the sony store, because my books are trapped on their device. I'll go back, if and only when Sony has an app that let's me read on my iPad and other devices.
