I've been really busy at work and came here and saw so many useful advice, thanks!

I think I will go for non DRM and PDF.
PDF is the worst possible choice for an eBook. PDF was not intended to be an eBook format, but a digital representation of a printed page. It does not scale well - it's virtually impossible to design a PDF which will look good on, say, a 5" reader such as a Sony PRS-305 and a 10" reader such as an iPad or Kindle DX.

The two primary eBook formats are ePub and Mobipocket. Go for those format and you'll have pretty much the entire market covered.

PDF should be avoided like the plague!
