ebook reader

[lumière]

I don't know if this question is appropriate to this forum. Nevertheless... ...

I wish to buy an ebook reader - something that can allow me to indulge my predilection to read while lying down, and protect at the same time my precious reading material from a plague of termites, a common problem in India

I found, on googling, that there is a bewildering variety of ebook readers floating around

now what i want is an ebook reader
01. that reads doc, pdf, jpg, gif, txt and rtf formats
02. that will also read the pdf/gif files that I had created by scanning the books I have, without the intervention of DRM problems

thanks for your advice
