I've been looking to get an ereader ever since seeing an e-ink screen for the first time. I have been looking at the kindle 3 because I like it's price and it was the first e-ink screen I saw.

I am not going to be buying any books, just downloaded pfd's and djvu files.

My question is how is the kindle support for pdf's and djvu files. Is it difficult to convert the files on your computer without uploading them to the amazon website?

Am i going to be able to fit the width of a page or am i going to have to times where I have to hit right on the arrow key to read the last word of every sentence?? This is my main concern!! Will the ereader treat the book as an image file or as a text file (ie increasing text size without distortion etc)

Are there any other ereaders I should consider for the under $200 price range

Much thanks guys!
