I do realize these types of topics pop up all the time and I apologize for adding to the seemingly never ending repetition.

After much searching I have finally got my search for an E-book reader narrowed down to two.

Sony Digital Reader Pocket Edition (PRS300SC) and The Kindle.

I had considered a Nook, but I saw no advantage to getting one since the nearest B & N is 100+ miles away.

I am open to other suggestions as well, so any advice would be much appreciated. I don't need anything fancy, I just want to read. I do have a price limit though, I only have $150 to spend on one.

My requirements are ridiculously stringent so here they are.

It must be simple to use
And it must be reliable

And now for the icing on the cake, the stuff that would just sweeten the deal. but these are by no means a deal breaker.

Multiple format compatibility
and decent PDF capability (Mostly text with one or two images)
