Exclamation What eBook reader should I buy (Spain)

Hey!

<!-- That long paragraph is only to apologize for asking for help knowing how much information there's in the forums -->
I'm looking for my first ebook reader device. I've read a lot of info in the forums and the wiki, but I get lost in the crazy amount of information and the one-sided reviews. Another main issue I have is that everything I read seems to be regarding to US customers, but I can't find reliable information about how ebooks work in Spain.

Can you help me?
I'm looking for an eBook reader device that has the following features (by order of importance):
  1. has access to a good store with recent non-fiction titles in English (at least)
  2. costs under 500$ (the lower the better).
  3. has good support for Spain
  4. supports some kind of notation or, at least, highlighting.
  5. is readable under (direct) sunlight
  6. reads PDF's with science notations and, ideally, graphs.
  7. big screen, but low weight.
  8. long battery-life
  9. the ebooks from the store are DRM-free
  10. the lower the price of the ebooks the better
  11. is able to play music

I didn't add it first, but obviously, the better the resolution and the amount of grays, the better .

Thanks for your help!
