What E-Book reader has the best pdf compatibility?

I am a grad student looking for an ebook reader that can store all of my pdf journal articles. I need it to allow me to make marks on the documents, highlight stuff, maybe even allow me to take notes on the document itself. What is my best option?

    It is always the best to read some actual user opinions.

    There are some very good actual user opinions here, for someone who has tried the Sony Reader, the Nook and the Kindle, you should get a much better idea after reading.

    Sony Reader vs Kindle:

    And in case you don't know, Barnes & Noble reported a loss last quarter, while Amazon has a keep on increasing profit every year. It is clear that Amazon is much more stable financially. If, by chance, Barnes & Noble goes into any problem, there may no longer be support for the Nook. This is also one of the reasons why I choose the Kindle over the Nook.

    Finally, below are links to the new Kindle 3.

    Hope these help you decide.

    So far as books that contain movies, the books aren't limited by a set timeframe and thus can get into much more depth then a feature length movie could. Sometimes movies conclude very different from the book

    Kindle is definitely an amazing device. Its worth the money.You can put ebooks/notes/audio books on your kindle also Notes and annotations are very easy to make.Very easy to use with the PC and the Mac Kindle is very straight forward there's no need for additional software required for Kindle. Also supports you can also increase the text size which is again amazing.E-INK screen technology that don’t glare in any light so no strain to eyes and less harmful. There are wide range of books on kindle many are free and other are cheaper at price than the actual books so yes I have saved a lot of money till now.

    You dont have to carry now all those heavy actual books, kindle is so light weight which is carrying almost 1500 books within it. Since I travel a lot I really like the 3G Internet you can get the internet wherever you go. Whenever you are tired of reading you can also you Text-To-Speech with auto-page turning feature which is jst so relaxing. If the small size strains your eyes a lot than can also change the text-size. I must say Kindle is a small magic books really I cant live without it.

    Amazon Kindle at amazon $139
