When I first started reading on the JBL, I had no idea that there were other options for me out there. I only had pdf ebooks, so I thought that's what I had to stick with. I actually had to perform operation scroll right scroll left scroll down for a couple books before I told myself this was ridiculous and began collecting non-pdf ebooks.
When I first showed my brother my JBL, the first question that came out of his mouth was "does this read pdf?"
And a couple days ago, someone started a thread asking about displaying the pdf he just bought/downloaded for his girlfriend.
We as a community need to better educate people about the evils of pdf for the ebook reading community. It's the second worst format imaginable.
