It's not only about the margins.
Even on my old Kindle DXG, which I sold already, some PDFs did not look good. The ereader was not able to analyze the document well and the images look out of place or position.
Moving back and forth is also a pain. So if you are reading a technical book, like MS-SQL for example, you need to jump from chapter 1 to chapter 10 and go back again, it's a painful experience. Try that several times and then let me know.
I mainly read computer books. So this "issue" is (or should I say, was) very common to me. I solved using an iPad and GoodReader app. It is fast, allows annotations, and renders very well.
My Kindle Touch is ok for most PDF, but I must use it on landscape and it is very slow comparing to a tablet.
