- My library offers DRMed OverDrive eBooks in the mobipocket & Adobe PDF eBook formats -- would prefer a device that supports these formats.
- I use Amazon to read reviews of books & get Amazon gift certificates often - -so, wouldn't mind buying eBooks from Amazon, but they seem to offers books only in the Kindle format?
If the Kindle could read OverDrive's mobipocket and/or Adobe PDF eBook formats.

No you have plenty of good choices. From the list above (I took out the bullets that applied to all devices)
For secure DRM MOBI ebooks the CyBook is your only solution. I'm not aware of any other e-Ink reader that supports secure MOBI. ( I can read secure mobi on my windows Mobile 5 phone but that was not your question
).
For secure DRM PDF/ePub Sony is your only solution is the SONY PRS-505. There is no other mobile device that reads secure PDFs/ePub.
It sounds like you are familiar with modifying the eBook files, so ....
There are know cracks that remove DRM on MOBI books. If you are okay with that then that pretty much opens up most readers. There are several readers that support MOBI natively others have software that easily converts MOBI to their native format
