Hi Argel,
Life's too short to get depressed over such issues. Hopefully my 411 below get you back to "Getting excited" about life

Currently you place a importance on being able to read on he PC and on an EINK device. I think once you get your device you will find it hard to read on the PC. However since you ask...

The I know of two formats that allow a user to read on the PC and on an EInk First is the Mobi format. There are a few EBook Readers are Cybook and the Illiad that handle this format natively. Mobi is also supported on blackberrys and Win CE(WM5/WM6)

Second is the SONY reader, the online reader is quite nice. The reader features (search/bookmark) work on all supported formats (PDF, txt, Doc,.etc..), but I don't use it as I find it hard to read eBooks on the PC

Currently many SONY buy LIT/Mobi format and convert it to LRF. Of course that requires hunting down apps/scripts that you mentioned above.
The side benifit is here you can read LIT/MOBI/BeBB on the PC as well as on your reader.

Hope this helps
