Elvish,

Have you checked ebook's selection? Price and ebook availability is an important factor when buying, in my opinion; you can get an awesome ereader but if you cannot find good books for it, then you will have to start thinking about breaking DRM and converting via Calibre and a lot of additional stuff that you can easily avoid since the very beginning.

I would suggest thinking about ebook selection, then hardware/device.
