I agree, PDF handling on ALL eInk devices could be better.

I use my Sony PRS-650 ever day, and have found it overall to be a joy to use, but that's because about 99% of the time I am reading EPUBs not PDFs.

I find the PDF handling on my 650 to be good enough for that other 1%, but like other eInk devices with 5 and 6 inch screens, it could definitely stand some improvements.

So if PDFs were my main focus, I would be looking for a better solution.

I will be interested to see just how well ezPDF and RepliGo work, once they are tweaked for the new Nook Touch.

For now, I also agree that the iPad with GoodReader is a nice combo, that will easily outperform any of the current eInk PDF devices.

The android apps are getting better, and catching up pretty quickly, but I think GoodReader on the iPad is still the gold standard.
