The little hundred dollar windows ce netbooks are about the size of a kindle, protect the screen with a clamshell closure, and can read mobi, text, rtf, pdf without difficulty. I don't know about epub. You can do other things with them, there is a keyboard and a bright color lcd screen. They are also battery-hogs. You can turn the backlight on or off, so read in darkness or sunlight. Weight is not too much different from a kindle in its case. You can rotate the image on the screen--seven inches. Easily available on ebay. Don't pay more than a hundred dollars including shipping.
