eBooks and eReaders

For a few months now I've been thinking about getting an eReader. The Sony Reader seems nice, and it has been around for a while, but Amazon Kindle has been getting a lot of press since it came out. Seems like it has a few too many features for my tastes (I just want a basic device that I can load books onto.)

Take a look as these two and let me know if any of you have any preference, or any other good ideas.
