Looking for my first e-reader

Hi everyone!
Every now and then I search the web for a suitable e-reader without success so far. And I am at a point where I pretty much have given up. So I need help to figure out what to settle for.
To me the ideal e-reader would be as minimalistic a possible. Copy files to the device, turn it on, select a file from a list and read. Two buttons to change pages, one to go back to the file selection and one the turn the reader on & off.

Things I am looking for:
  • support for MOBI/EPUB (and PDF)
  • an option to bookmark
  • standard components like AAA batteries and SD / USB support
  • a proprietary system with the sole purpose of displaying eBooks
  • an option to set a password

Things I am trying to avoid:
  • any sort of wireless connectivity (WiFi, bluetooth)
  • any internet capability
  • a cluttered android/linux/windows/... device
  • a touch screen

The things on top of each list are more important to me than the ones on the bottom. I doubt such a reader exists but maybe there is one that gets close? Any help would be appreciate. Thanks in advance!
