As for reading I really love mine, the Sony reader was great, I liked a lot about it but I wanted a slightly larger screen, and the ink was a problem for me in low light, I normally have a problem reading in low light as is, so the ink just amplified it, I also always missed knowing what time it was when reading at luck time, as I do not wear a watch at work. The iPad has been great for reading for me, however I prefer the kindle app, for three reasons, I like to read in the landscape orientation and the kindle app shows me 1 page at a time while the iBooks makes me have two pages up at a time in landscape, to have only one page I have to read in portrait, but I find the iPad more comfortable to hold in landscape, I also prefer the paper settings on the kindle app, it offers a sepia background which I find easier to read, also the light setting on the kindle app remains constant even when you turn it on and off, while the iBooks resets itself every time you turn it off, at least I have not seen a way to maintain it, they will probably fix that in a newer version.
