It does not have any ability to correct but with the highlight & bookmark I can more quickly make corrections on my computer.

Reason, I'm saying all this is, if you should find an eink display device that will allow the highlight (many already allow bookmarks), I would be very interested in that device.

Oh, & welcome to the forum.
The iLiad allows highlighting, as well as other kinds of markup. There are community-created applications that can extract segments of PDF files that have been marked up, as well.
