Need advise for a cheap device

Hi everyone.....

I am a student right now, and i have decided to go for a cheap ereader or PDA as a temporary solution for my requirements. My budget is around $55. If a device is worth it, i can extend it around $85. I will be using it only for an year, so going for the cheapest device i can get.

I browsed through sections of the forum and also googled a lot. But i am still not sure what should i buy.

My main requirements:
1. Good/moderate screen size
2. Good readability
3. Ability to read PDF files(As most of the books i have are in pdf format, maybe this is too much to ask for in such a cheap device)

I have also made a list here, but i am not sure that whether they will meet my needs:

1. Ipaq 1945 $100 + shipping
2. Tungsten T3 - found this one for $75+ shipping
3. iPAQ 3650 $39+shipping
4. Sony PEG-T615C - $46+shipping
5. HP 360LX JORNADA HANDHELD - $80 shipped to India
6. iPAQ Pocket PC Rx3715 - available in India ebay, not sure about price, still bidding open
6. And some more. I have even given thoughts to Fujitsu penCentra 130

What will be good for me. Other suggestions are also welcome.

I really need your suggestion friends.
Thanks in advance, regards.
