I can confirm that the Kindle cannot read ePub, but .mobi files work just fine. the Adobe Editions ePub files tend to be DRM'd, although also don't require DRM to be used.
If we're talking about kindle-specific options, .mobi is probably best. If we're looking for an "ereader format" that'll span most things, PDF or ePub would be better, although ePub does exclude Kindle users.
