If you decide you want chiefly to read ebooks on an e-ink screen, then I'd recommend the Nook Simple Touch - $100 at Bestbuy, less on ebay. One disadvantage is it does not read mobi/prc ebooks that constitute a large part of US ebooks. And of course a Kindle doesn't allow epubs. If you're willing to try, this problem can be solved by rooting the NST. Pretty simple to do and there are many videos etc. showing how. Rooting doesn't destroy the original system; each can be booted to on desire. Then you can install various ereader apps such as fbreader, cool reader, and aldiko and read just about anything.
