Device: Sony PRS-505, Pocketbook 902
I tried to open a 100 MB pdf with my 902. Nope, it won't open - to be fair it's a scanned travel guide, even the computer has problems with it. With files over 30 MB (also scanned material), the 902 will give a warning that the file is too big, but it opens them nevertheless - the first time in about 10-15s, after that it's fast.

The zoom is pretty good, I haven't found a pdf that I couldn't adjust to read comfortably.

True, the main menu is a bit sluggish but turning pages is faster than on the Sony prs-505.As for the interface, I don't own a kindle, but I can tell you that it's far less intuitive than the prs-505's. To the extent that, at first, I wasn't impressed with the 902, but after a week exploring its configuration options, I am getting very fond of it. I wouldn't give it to my Mom, but if you don't mind tinkering a bit, it's pretty nifty. Sort of like a Debian system..
