So I've finally decided to get an ebook reader, now the question is which..

I'll be reading a lot of text based books and I am on a tight budget so an eink reader is the obvious choice(also its superb battery life is a strong point). Out of 10 books I read one or two might be PDFs. So any eink device which has some pdf viewing capabilities should be fine. I am leaning towards Kindle PW(it also has lighting feature). By the way can calibre render text based PDFs into mobi/epub?

Also, I live in India so I will get it shipped from a friend of mine from the US. Would that cause any problems? While registering the device or anything else?

Thanks!
