Onyx Boox for example has "free zoom". Meaning, you can mark whatever area you're interested in with the reader's stylus and explode that area to full screen.
i would counter that the screen is big enough where zoom is not normally needed (even though it is available now). Or you can view in landscape half page at a time for a really nice view. It is my opinion that zoom, given the speed of e-ink (especially with graphic heavy pdf's) is no substitutute for a larger screen given that application (PDF viewing)
