@Enor. You have two choices as I see it. A Kobo or an open Android reader.

Forget it on the Kobo. You'll have to convert them probably to epub using Calibre. It's not hard to do. An android reader will read anything, including the Amazon mobi format.

The Kobo allows this, but you must apply patches and custom packages to make it happen. If you are able to consider JBing a Kindle, this should present no problem.
Again, Android will do it.

5. I would love to be able to adjust fonts (size and weight) without having to run the books through a conversion tool, as well.

The standard Kobo interface has the best viewing options, period. It all just works.
Android formatting options are light years ahead of a Kindle formatting (what isn't?).
Probably the Kobo would suit your needs. I have one sitting round I don't use, so I'm not mad about them, but I think a Kobo would best suit your needs. It does involve some messing about to get it exactly as you want it, but as I said, if you are willing to apply a software JB to a Kindle, it's no worse than that, and a lot less can go wrong. If things go wrong, you just do a hard-reset.
The only other option is to get a rooted Android e-reader which would also do all of this stuff, and more.
I believe the new Nook can be rooted: There's a link about rooting it here:

Alternatively get an Onyx or Boyue off of Amazon (if you're in the States).
I am not aware of a option that will allow you to sync across platforms, but the Kobo might do it. I'm not sure how it would handle non-Kobo purchased books.
