But what good is the big display, if you can't do even the most basic of manipulations?
You can't select columns in newspapers.
You can't select any areas and explode to full screen.
You can't reflow the text and intelligently manage it (cropping margins, justification, ...).

Don't get me wrong: I love my Kindles. Else I wouldn't have bought DX Graphite (my 3rd Kindle within 1 year).
But that's only for Amazon's own format respectively for Mobipocket.
ePUBs can be converted for Kindle with very good results as well. But converting PDFs usually leads to way less convincing results...
