And on the tech support front - tech support is a given, I just don't want to be the only path to getting new books, and I also want to be able to share books between the devices. the lack of book exchange capability between the Reader and the Kindle makes getting the Kindle an imperfect solution...
As pilotbob says you can have both Calibre and Sony connect installed at the same without issue's. What i can not do is what pilotbob states bellow

I can add the books i have bought on the Sony Connect store to the Calibre library but when i try to transfer them over i receive an error message. This might just be me i don't know as i have not looked into it much so a second opinion would be great
