Kindle DX doesn't allow zooming or panning.
But it does seem to allow conversion into Kindle format which
in turn would be great if it allows "read-to-me" support.

PRS700 does allowing zooming and also has backlighting.
But some people say it has glare problems and the quality is
not so sharp.

PRS505 seems to have a better screen quality but slower page turning
than the PRS700 and also smaller screen size.

Don't think any of the 3 devices allows annotating.
Not sure about bookmarking.

PRS700 has touch screen but to be honest I see that as
a negative rather than a positive. If there is one thing that
bugs me about my iPhone touch screen is the greasy
fingerprints I am always cleaning off

I have a growing PDF book library and it gets
tiring to read on a computer screen so I want
to get a proper reading device.

Any advice appreciated.

Yes but why. That answer tells me nothing.
