Need Advice

[reviews_and_ramblings]

I received an Amazon Gift Card enough to buy this Kindle:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002FQJT3Q/?tag=elimyrevandra-20

Knowing that I'm totally useless in recognize the pros and cons of an e-reader and that I have almost all my ebooks in .pdf (the .lit ones are very old and I can read them in my laptop), is that one a good choice? I want a device to read ebooks that is smaller and lighter than my laptop and that I can bring with me even when I don't want to carry along my laptop bag. Plus in trains and planes when I don't have way to charge my laptop.

Any help, or suggestion, is very much appreciated. And yes, it has to be something on the Amazon website since I have to use the gift card there.

I got me the 6" display WiFi kindle back in September and I've loved every minute of it. I don't even use the wifi. Just as a reader and mostly I buy pdf's.
It's small, light to carry and easy to read screen.
I carry it with me everywhere. Bus daily commute, reading in bed. By this point it is necessary to me now.
Plus I love the fact that I never need to turn it off (has a screensaver after about 15 mins idle) and it needs a recharge about every two weeks!!!

One more thing. My advise is get it from the .co.uk store site. I made the mistake of buying it from amazon.com and then had to pay customs (about as much as it cost in addition) for it to enter the eu.
