Also if it reflows the text, that changes the aspect ratio of the page. The standard page sizes all have the ratio of 1 to sqrt(2). If the ratio changes and the viewer fits the width of the page to the width of the screen, the user needs some way to scroll down to see the rest of the page.

Yes, reflow is usually an option in the menus if it is supported. I doubt that v3 would support that if it is not in the menus. This means that it is likely that it zooms the image which is generally not satisfactory for reading books. That means it will end up like the sony where you have to build specific books for the size of the reader. Likely you can use the sony built pdf on V3.
Note that when reflow works it also resizes the pages to the page size of the device. Aspect ratio is not a factor. The treatment of images is usually to shrink them if necessary to fit the page. They may also move slightly in the reflowed book with regard to the original placement.
