Hello -- and welcome to MobileRead. In addition to the Cybook, you might want to consider the BeBook/Hanlin which just announced an upgrade to allow it to support MobiPocket formatted books. I understand that the Sony is being introduced to France, so even though it does not support as many book formats, you might want to consider it as well.

> and to reduce the size of my bookshelves.

My personal experience is that this is just theoretical. My TBR stack of paper books has definitely grown since I received my Kindle in February. That might be related to the fact that I've read 41 books on the Kindle and only 38 paper books since mid-February. I'm still getting paper books -- mostly through swaps rather than purchasing -- so I'm making a special effort to send 2 out for every one received. I just haven't gotten to the point where I'm willing to part with a book that I haven't read.
