So, if the above is truly the issue with the Kindle, you must remove the Sony reader from your consideration list also.
That leaves the CyBook as the device you must go with.

I listed the Sony because I thought you could get DRM for the Sony from Fictionwise. I did not realize that the DRM had to be removed first. My error. That is the reason I have not bought the Sony - a great product - just too proprietary.
This is why I decided to post - you can learn a lot from reading the forums, but sometimes direct discussion really answers your questions. thanks.
