I would want to be able to sync my bookmarks and notes between the Kindle and my PC Reader. A good compromise would be for Amazon and Microsoft to cooperate so that Microsoft Reader could read Amazon Kindle files. If that cooperation happened, I would definitely buy the Kindle as my SUPPLEMENTARY Reader.

If that happens, I would hope that the Kindle would also be able to read MS Reader files as well. Then I could use all my present book files on my PC and on my Kindle and have a wide variety of sources where I can purchase books.

Failing all that, I prefer to stick to Microsoft Reader for PC viewing of books.
Sounds as though the Gen3 might be a better choice, given your lifestyle. Lots of different eBook stores to buy books from, nice desktop reader, and you can sync your bookmarks between the Gen3 and the desktop reader.
