Ya, an Android tablet would be the best way to go.

Keep in mind that PDF is not an eBook format. It's a page-layout format.

If the PDFs you want to read are layed out for a 8x11 page, then you'll need an 8x11 reader. Anything smaller than that and you have 2 choices:
1. A smaller looking page, scaled down to fit the screen.
2. Reading the PDF through a "keyhole" as you scroll back and forth to see the whole page.

The biggest Android tablets today are about 10". Archos sells one (the Archos 101). And today's Woot! is a 10" tablet from ViewSonic. Expect to pay $250-$350 depending on the deal and how much storage you want.
