you should get a reader if you plan to read more than 1 or 2 hours per day, or, if you have ever experienced eyestrain from looking into monitors. I'm 20 and reading from a netbook gave me blurry vision after a few months.
I would shoot for the sony 505, its probably the cheapest you could get, and its great, and you will have acess to the sony ebook store. but, if you have anyfriends stateside I would suggest to get a kindle in a heartbeat.
pick up a used 505 on ebay and you will get a nice cheap intro into the ebook world.
or you can get a Jetbook from Newegg.ca
