iPad and DRM question - newbie

Hi guys, I don’t own an ebook reader currently, because I’m confused by all this DRM and epub business.

If a reader only accepts DRM formats, does it mean that I can’t read free legal ebooks on it? For example those downloaded from Project Gutenberg. What about PDF files that don’t have DRM – e.g. my company reports and technical journals that I've subscribed to?

I’m actually interested in the upcoming Apple iPad, particularly for reading large PDFs in colour. Anyone knows if it will allow me to read my own material or is it constrained to only books purchased from Apple’s store?
