Absolutely. And many technical books with equations and graph content do not translate well to html/epub which is why they are distributed as pdf. Busy pdf formatting does not lend itself to reflow which is were 'zooming' is applicable. However, Sony's pdf croping, page layout, and zooming implementation does not capitalize on available screen space.
