I was looking to use my amazon credit from trading in some games. I went through some options like a psp go, etc, but thought, "Hey, what about a kindle?"

Needless to say, its between a kindle 2 international version aka the one available right now and a kindle dx

I know the physical differences between the two, but I was wondering what you all think which one would be better for me based on these points:

-Im a big guy - 6'5, but Ive had tiny things before and can deal with that.
-I am starting to read more books. I am also looking to subscribe to some newspapers and magazines when I get one.
-Don't need a ton of features because I have an iphone.
-Don't have bad eyesight...yet :/

Also, if there's another ereader out there you would like to suggest, please, let me know.

One more thing, is there a way I can put books downloaded from the barnes and noble store onto a kindle? I got a barnes and noble gift card for christmas(I know theres some issues with the nook right now) and was looking to get a couple of ebooks with it.
