I voted for the Sony. If you don't need features like search and dictionary lookup or Mobipocket format, then the Sony seems like a good choice. I think e-ink is worth carrying a small booklight for. It's so nice on the eyes and the battery life makes it a great choice for those of us that want to read for long stretches. The Sony is the lowest price e-ink reader out there and seems to cover all the features you'd like. It's also sleek, light, attractive and, from what I hear from the owners on this board, quite reliable.
By the way, if you end up looking for a light, I really like my Mighty Bright LED booklight. I have a Kindle which is the same screen as the Sony and the illumination is perfect. It's light, folds down quite small, and the LEDs last a long time.
