Kindles are good, and there's no need to use the Amazon Store if you don't want to. I have an older Kindle 3 (still sold as the Kindle Keyboard I think) and it's got support for MOBI (its native format), PDF, ePub, and image files too - you can use Mangle to convert your downloaded manga to read on your Kindle. Its black and white screen is perfect for manga's small monochrome pages.
You can transfer books onto it by USB, but even more conveniently each Kindle has its own email address. Email books to that address as attachments and they'll automatically pop up for reading. If you use a Mac I recommend Calibre for organising and transferring your ebooks. There may be a Windows version too, I'm not sure.
