Or I can use CoolReader instead of the Kindle app to read the unDRMed amazon books.
Damn it, both options seem equally attractive. And I won't consider the option of buying both and return one of them.
Someone should hack the Kindle app to make it eink friendly.
Can I sideload any unDRMed book to the Kindle Touch using Calibre?

With all respect.
I think you are focusing too much on the device, and not the online store. After all, you are getting a device to read books. So you must have some reliable source to buy those prior using the reader.
Check Amazon ... check B&N ... validate titles, prices, even the website interface. If you find B&N having more titles you like and better prices, get the Nook and forget about Amazon. If you like Amazon store and prices, get the Kindle.
