The kindle isn't quite good for that, might wanna look at the iPad if you're looking to do a lot of glossary stuff.The main issue with the Kindle and PDFs is that it doesn't fit A4 pages well on the 6" version. It's good on the DX though.See here for more comments: http://www.wilmott.com/messageview.cfm? ... adid=79011

are multiple PDF readers for iPad but most people recommend this one: http://www.goodreader.net/goodreader.htmlIt does have underlining and notes but I haven't tried whether or not it can be transferred to Previe or Adobe Reader and maintain those markups.

Can anyone recommend an e-reader that reads djvu files without conversion?I used to have a PocketBook 301+, but the screen cracked

There are a few but I've tried none of them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebook_read ... FormatsThe iRiver one looks okay.
