I would recommend PocketBook 301.

I believe you will get large number of suggestions, because the difference between individual brands is not that great. They ALL use exactly the same display. So it is the "little" things that distinguish various models.
Do you need/want the keyboard the Kindle offers? Would you prefer a body made from metal as Sony offers for their 505 model? Or is the most versatile firmware allowing for third-party improvements matter the most? Do you want to read in various languages? Do you want to update the fonts and fine tune the look of your files? PocketBook devices have perhaps the best firmware from tinkerers point of view.

Whatever e-ink device you buy, you will like it.

There are yet another large group of Mobilereaders that prefer to read from backlit LCD screens.
