Let me add that the PDF support on the Kindle is incomplete compared to a typical desktop reader app like Acrobat Reader. For example, the title and author often don't show up properly on the book list, and some images do not render correctly. I have a Kindle DX and it gives me these problems with some of my technical books but not Acrobat Reader on my desktop.

The Kindle has been around for a while and Amazon has had plenty of time to address these issues. I suspect that PDF support is just not one of their priorities given that they are in the business of selling books in their own non-PDF format. So, I'm not holding my breathe for them to improve the PDF support. I think I'm switching to PocketBook or Onyx myself.
