That's absolutely true, Jon, but some 6" readers are less awful at handling PDFs than others are. Top of the "awfulness league" would probably be the Kindle 2 or 3, which supports no form of reflow whatsoever and on which reading an A4 PDF is quite simply impossible. Devices which support reflow - eg Sony, the Neo, etc - can do a pretty decent job with PDFs that are primarily text. You'll probably get line breaks in funny places, but the text is readable.
