Kindle e-books support the Kindle format (AZW and KFX), as well as other formats like MOBI and PDF. These e-books can be read on Kindle devices, as well as on the Kindle app on various devices such as smartphones and tablets.
Michael Stackpole recommends pdf because the page numbers remain the same no matter what font you use - he says this way, you can send your manuscript to many different people, and they can discuss it together by saying "on page ___, the author says ..." without everyone being on a different page.
Apart from the above mentioned advantage, pdf files do not carry viruses like exe files do. Earlier exe format was used, but nowadays pdf is the most popular format. I regularly use ebooks as marketing tools. My writers (http://www.freelancewritingdesk.com) prefer pdf.
the nook because of the touch screen for browsing through books and typing and it 's paper like screen. The kindle is the 2nd best because of its paper like screen and qwerty keyboard. The sony reader would have to come in last place because of its short battery life and reviews. The nook color defeats the purpose of an e-reader because of its touchscreen.... an e-reader is suppose to be to be gentle on the eyes (no lights). I recommend buying the nook, it has good reviews and the e-books are easy to get. Also you can check and send emails on it. -web browsing is available for free-
That depends on the generation or version of Kindle that you have.

Or, you can always get calibre and convert pretty well any format to any other format.
I think all the e book readers out there are excellent. They all have many of the same features. I think the Amazon Fire is the best e book reader for the money on the market right now.
I would probably have to say the Kindle or the Nook. These are two of the most popular e-readers out there. If you have an android device they sometimes come with pretty good e-readers too.
There are apps in the various markets that can do this for you. Check your app market for the auto kindle ebook converter.

But if the pdf file is PDF eBook, maybe we have to convert the pdf to Kindle mobi format because Kindle doesn't support the common pdf format eBook.See related link.
The Nook cannot read Amazon ebooks in Amazon's proprietary AZN format. In cases where the Amazon ebook is not protected with DRM (digital rights management), it may be possible to use free software to convert the Amazon book to a format compatible with Nook.
Because it's up to the individual authors whether they agree to have their books available in eBook format.
The BEST ebook reader available is probably mostly controlled by opinion. However, since I know that the Amazon Kindle was the first to come up with the idea of an ebook reader, my opinion rests on the Kindle. The Kindle is a very good ebook, especially for the price.
