I am relatively new to eReaders, and I only know about the "mainstream" models. I just bought one reader myself, and it was a hard decision.
I went with the Sony Reader Touch Edition (PRS-600).
1. It makes use of eInk so it won't strain your eye.
2. The PRS-600 is THE reader with the best highlight/annotations features.
3. I haven't received mine yet (damn UPS!), so I can't say anything about this.
1. I think all eInk readers have decent battery life now days.
2. Again, I don't know about this one yet.
3. PRS-600 has the easiest interface ever, since it has a touch screen (imo).
1. No internet, but I think it's a good choice. Internet with eInk screens would be... gross.
2. Sony Reader has a broad file format compatibility (even word documents!).
3. Yes!
May I add. Newegg (newegg.com) has the PRS-600 $50 cheaper than the official price, so you'd only be spending $250 (free shipping, no taxes).
Also, an important thing that helped me with my decision, is the fact that Sony has embraced the ePub file format. Because of this, you can make full use of Google Books, as well as Adobe Digital Editions which enable you to borrow eBooks from libraries!
