Jetbook, or Jetbook lite.
What it does well is read more file types than anything else out there that I'm aware of.
Very clear easy to read screen with high contrast.

What it doesn't, is connect to store with wireless network to buy books.
Can add SD card for more storage space. Comes with charger and USB cable to load books.

Newegg and several other sites have them priced below 200$ right now.

For *.lit ABC Amber Lit converter, will save as .doc, .rtc, .txt, and many more, freeware.
Will easily convert files by the folderload. Just choose the folder, where to save, file type you want them saved as.

I convert my pdf files to text so I don't have to scroll every page.
Zilla PDF converter free version saves to .txt only, paid version has more options.
It also does batch converting very nicely.

I believe the next version of Jetbook Updated Firmware is going to do HTML and EPub.
So I'm holding off till they get the bugs out of it. Then will update my Jetbook with the new firmware.
