Confused

Firstly hello guys, it's my first post so please be gentle

I came across this site whilst researching which reader to buy, I live in the UK and use macs (i do have windows installed in fusion but i hate it) Which is the best reader for me to buy? I mainly enjoy new releases from the likes of Lee Child, Michael Connelly, Dale Brown etc.
My main reason for wanting a reader is i work away an awful lot on oil rigs etc where weight is restricted so carrying 4-5 paper backs is a nono. Looked at the Sony 505 and the BeBook not sure which has the best mac support / workaround, for example i've found some books on mobipocket that look quite recent from authors i like is it as simple as buying the book i want then dragging an dropping onto my chosen reader?

Any advice would be gratefully received, i'm not the most computer literate person but i get by. I'd just like things to be simple in an itunes kind of way- see a book i like buy it and drop it onto my device. As an aside i'd ideally like to get the device over the weekend in time for my next offshore trip but this isn't really a deal killer.
