Also, you need a special PDF for each reader, because of the different screen sizes. Of course, I lost the high quality typsetting of TeX/LateX, but I won a lot of flexibility.
Maybe for big novels that you read page by page, PDF is an option ... anyway, I would like a clickable table of contents in my PDF, and I never tried to get that on the Kindle ...

Kindle does not support PDF links. Maybe some day it will, it has to be next on their to-do list of PDF viewing enhancements...
Kindle needs to have better TOC functionality in general. It should be making better use of the 'NCX' TOC structure (the same 'navpoints' structure that ePub uses for TOC navigation). The 'HTML TOC' (list of hyperlinked section titles at the start of most ebooks) is awful to navigate.
