I personally do not find any advantage on a ereader which is a "nice piece of engineering" if I will have to buy from Amazon or Barnes and Noble, break DRM protection encryption (that can change and become stronger over the time), convert via Calibre and then upload.
The OP has stated that he intends on reading mostly PD and free books. Also, there are many places to buy epub books for the Sony devices other than the Sony store.
