The EZ Reader only supports MOBI DRM. There are currently no EInk readers that support eReader DRM.

If you like eReader, then one approach is to continue to buy from them and use ereader2html (eReader Decoder Tool) to strip the DRM. This is of questionable legality in some places, but when used to format shift ebooks you bought for personal use it is hard to see who it hurts. The resulting HTML may be readable "as is" on the EZ Reader, or it can be converted to ePub (via Calibre) or to DRM-free MOBI via Windows MobiPocket Reader (or MobiPerl's html2mobi). The best format of all on EZ Reader may be FB2, but I'm not sure what the best way to convert to this format is. Once it arrives, I intend to switch my EZ Reader to OpenInkpot (see 0.1-beta2). This supports no DRMed formats at all, but should give a consistently high level of performance on a wide range of ebook formats.
