I don't think you're going to find much in the 10" size that doesn't have "bells and whistles." These are marketed as premium readers and are expected to have the newest features.
You might want to look into the new PocketBook InkPad X. It's 10.3", uses the Mobius substrate (which makes it light, 300 grams – 10.5 ounces). It has a touch screen, front light (with the warm tone choice), 32 GBs built in, has BlueTooth, Text To Speech and 19 eBook format choices.

I think GoodEReader sells them in this country. I'm guessing you could find a dealer in Europe who would ship to the U.S. (It looks like Grooves has them.)

Newegg also has them in stock...

This is one choice. I think Onyx Boox makes a 10.3" reader as well.
