I strongly leaned towards the Kindle before settling on Sony. I'm absolutely happy with that decision, and would make the same one again. My main reason, though, may not apply to you.. I needed a device that could handle reading Korean without too much hassle. There is a unicode patch available for the Sony that has allowed me to read Korean natively on the Reader, and to replace the fonts with fonts more pleasing to my eyes.

I still yearn for the whispernet, though. But in the end, I think I'm glad I went with the sony. Kindle is too closed for comfort in terms of files you can read directly on the device. Sony may be similarly limited, but kovid goyal's Calibre is the most wonderful program and handles conversions beautifully, all in one. My reader is very aesthetically appealing, as well, which is a minor point in favor of it.

But I think you'll be happy.
