Question If dont buy a kindle am I lock out of amazon e book content?

Sorry for such a newbie question but I can not seem to find a straight answer . I'm a first time e reader buyer and honestly I like other e book readers better than the Kindle 2 . Honestly I want reader with expandable memory, smaller overall size (5" screen just fine) , have zero problems with load books by usb cable or on too sd card so I can live without wireless and keep the price between $150 to $200 usd . Readers like Ectaco jetBook Lite, Aluratek "Libre" E-Book Reader Pro , or Astak 5" EZ Reader Pocket at the high end have cought my eye . So the question is if I go with these non kindle readers do I lose the ability to purchase and read books off amazon or B&N because unfortunately there seems to be alot of amazon exclusive e book , newspaper and magazine content out there and would I be locking myself out that e reader content? Or are there other resources to find and download the same content to these non kindle e readers. Most of the time I would be reading free ebooks and epub content but it would be nice pick up the newest murder mystery or historical biography on my e reader. Again sorry for such a Newbie question but information Im getting is confusing and I find user forums the best place to go to find answers quickly , thank you in advance for any helpful information.
