My first Kindle just randomly died a few days ago after about 2 months of ownership. But, Amazon shipped me a new one free of charge that took about a day to get here.

Other than that, it's been good for me.

Kindles are awesome. I'm on my second, but to be fair my first only died because it was drowned under half a million gallons of water. And it still sorta worked....

The only catch with the Kindle is it won't do the snazzy stuff the Nook colour will because it's e-ink. Which is why I like it, really. I don't like reading books (or anything long) off a computer screen, so "reads like paper" is awesome.

The only thing that's pissing me off now is the "publisher set prices" that are happening more and more. Pay as much for the digital as for the print version of the book? Fuck you.

Love the new e-ink Pearl display on the newer Kindles.

But again, it depends on what you want an e-reader for. Amazon and Sony do e-ink, but if you want bells and whistles, you do have to look elsewhere.
