+1, Browtal-go for it! I LOVE my kindleI have a Kindle 3g - keyboard. I have it a year and I think that was all that was available then.
I find it great. Lots of free classics that i download from amazon.com - some good value current novels and some books available at normal book prices. Not everything is available online so I do still buy books and borrow from libraries.
My bibliophile friends say "oh I like the feel of a real book". Fine ........ still buy books but you will find the Kindle amazing for travel and as a research tool. I read loads and travel quite a bit. I think Michael O'Leary should be getting a commission from amazon as previously I had to check in a bag to bring all my books when I traveled!!!!
Leo - not sure if you are an avid reader, but Kindle is so much easier on the eyes than a backlit screen, much more like reading a real book - personally I would rather have a kindle in addition to a tablet than do my reading on a tablet.
I have wireless access almost everywhere I go so no need for 3g. And my advice, get a cover that flaps over the screen and more importantly use it when you are not reading!! Not using it caused the demise of my much loved kindle 3 :-D
I have a Kindle Fire that I got in the US - it does all the kindle ready stuff you want plus its on the wifi and works as a tablet. I believe its coming out soon in Europe - might be worth waiting for.
