I wanna buy an ebook reader but i don't want any amazon or other companies shit in there, just something i can connect to my pc, pass ebooks in different formats into it and read.

I own an Onyx Boox Air, but sadly can't recommend it as Onyx refuse to comply with the Linux kernel license and don't publish their changes. Not only is this a dick move it means custom ROMs and hacking is not likely to happen.
