I have a DXG and have decided that while pdfs can be read on it, it is far too slow for most of what I need to do with pdfs. To really do pdf files justice you need a full size letter or A4 display. Adding color e-ink won't help on a small screen unless speed is dramatically increased.
I think tablets are the way to go for pdfs simply because tablets can do the necessary panning and zooming much faster than any e-ink reader. They also display graphs, diagrams, and photos often found in pdf files in full color and take advantage of hyperlinked TOC, etc. in some pdf files. I'm not sure about the pdf readers for tablets, but I suspect you can copy, highlight, and add notes to pdfs, too, not that I need to do much of that...
