I would suggest that what works best for any individual is highly influenced by how that individual intends to use the device. For me, size and ergonomics are much more important than note taking or 3G. In fact, I would never use 3G, even if I did have it, because I use Calibre to organize my books and fix their metadata. I have arthritic thumbs that really don't like pushing buttons. In addition, I've always held a book at the bottom, so that's where I like to find the page turn. All of this means that, for me, there is nothing about the Kindle that would attract me. The keyboard adds to the size, the page turn buttons are up and in the middle, and you have to push a button to turn the page. My Sony is smaller, has the same screen size, allows me to turn the page with a light brush against the screen, and puts the page turn button at the bottom, where I tend to hold the reader. Since my primary purpose is to read books and I don't need a keyboard for that, I wouldn't buy a reader with a keyboard.
