If I were thinking of getting an e-book reader, which ones should I consider, and what are the relative tradeoffs?

Note that I'm in the USA, so eg the Kindle 3G would be in play...

If I were only going to get it for reading e-books and pdf articles that I could transfer myself, I'd probably go for the cheapest Kindle with wireless, but not 3g. But I tried their proprietary browser and couldn't get online to our campus proxy connection for the ebrary, so I am leaning towards an iPad. But I really think the kindle has a far better screen.
