Since I do need to read a lot of files in PDF format, i've considered getting a proper tablet, however I'd like to go with e-ink mainly for two reasons: cost, and the fact that I can rest my eyes since I stare at a backlit LCD screen anyway for most of the day. I may go for the Sony PRS-950 since it's so large, especially in landscape mode.
On that case, I suggest taking a look on the Kindle DXG. If what you need is highliting , will serve you well. Trust me, reading on 10 inch screen is better than 6 or 7. The DXG still is eink and is better on PDFs than Nook Touch. Moreover, you don't need to hack anything, it just works out of the box. It is also lighter than and iPad or Xoom.

Again, for a better PDf reading experience I think a tablet is the way to go, but if you don't need a lot of PDF editing capabilities, the DXG is more comfortable for your eyes than any 6 inch screen.
