I don't do Kindle, but I'm sure someone else will comment on that.
As for the Sony store, I still buy books there and use them on my GT 10.1. Of course, I strip the DRM first.
Aldiko handles Adobe DRM, so you should be able to read your books without stripping DRM. Aldiko is one of the nicer ebook readers in any case. There is a fully functional free version. I paid the $2 for the Premium version.
I'm keeping an eye on Mantano, but at this point, it still has some interface issues on a large tablet. If those are fixed in a later release and I can get another trial version, I may spring for the paid version.
It's rather annoying that the seven day trial applies even if you download a later bug fixed version. I can't adequately trial the software when the bug fix releases aren't all magically released in this short seven day window.
As for using the GT as an ereader, I love it. The display is probably the best of all the current tablets. And at 1.25 lbs, it is not overly tiring to hold for extended periods.
I prefer epub when I can get it, but the fact is that we still need to use PDF for some things. If your eyesight is good, you can actually read a full page PDF on the 10 inch screen without margin cropping. With margin cropping, I can easily read the PDF. I'm currenly using ezPDF, and like Aldiko, it is definitely worth the $2. Again, Mantano for reading PDF shows promise.
