I'm glad they included the Firefox add-on, EPUBReader, which I use.

Because there is a portable Fx, the add-on is portable, too. Plus, it's
easy to import/export titles to/from USB devices. The only downside is
that you're limited to EPUB format.

It is wrong question, should be
"What e-book reader fits these criteria the best ?"

None. Both are fired and forgotten.
