My Sony Prs-505.
The reader and ipod perform two different functions, albeit with some crossover: ereader-books, ipod-music.
I can listen to music on my PC (home and work) and my car stereo when traveling. The ipod touch is just a convenient way of keeping my tunes with me and available for listening. Although my reader has mp3 capability, I never listen to music on the reader.
The ipod can't touch the ereader for reading books. I like to read 6-8 books a month plus daily newspapers on my reader. Trying to read this much on a ipod would drive me crazy. The ipod screen is much to small for extended reading.
If you have to choose between the two, choose based on which function you prefer: music or reading. If you want to use the ipod primarily for music and infrequently for reading, (i.e. on plane trips etc.), by all means, buy the ipod. If you plan to read a lot buy a dedicated reader. The reader will be much easier on your eyes.
In either case: Enjoy!!
