For just reading a book I will take the Kindle hands down. It's mainly the eInk display. The LCD displays tend to burn my eyes after a few minutes of reading. As for PDF's, nothing I have found does them better than a PC. I have the iPad too and have even paid for a premium PDF app. Even it has quirks and some documents don't even load correctly. If you just have to have a PDF doc on your Kindle do as I do, I use Calibre and convert them to Kindle format. Even then all PDF's do not convert properly. There is not ONE perfect do-all device. That's why I have so many different "toys".
