I own the Kindle - and you can read PDF files on it. Though the print can be tiny - but you can get the print converted to more readable type for a small fee.
Nook's - I don't know if you can read PDF files on them and to the best of my knowledge the Nook is somewhat limited to B&N books. My cousin bought a Nook, then switched to the Kindle - which she preferred. I don't know why she switched though.
Kindle's are actually cheaper now than Nook's appear to be. They've gone done to $185.
I've been able to convert word files to rich text and read them on the Kindle with little problem.
