I've got my hopes high on this, but I've only seen a video of kindlepdfviewer on youtube (which looked quite promising) and a few screenshots of KOReader on a chinese website.
So... could anyone post a few screenshots of KOReader in action or, even better, a video on youtube? It would be IMMENSELY apreciated, as I have to read a lot of PDFs and I won't buy a kindle if it can't do that reasonably well. I don't mind fiddling around a little bit, though.
Thank you so much for your attention!

I don't have the equipment to make a video, but I made some screenshots for you, and uploaded them here:
http://imgur.com/a/1NR7I/all. I was unfortunately not able to take any screenshots of the File Manager screen, but it looks similar to the Bookmarks and Table of Contents winows only that it's full screen.
I use a nightly (development/less stable release) from somewhere in the middle of May, but I think the latest stable release has most of these features as well. I find the nightly I use very stable though, except that it crashes to the home screen nearly every time I try to adjust the light level (by holding one finger still and sliding the other up or down). But that doesn't bother me very much; you can just exist to the home screen and adjust the light level there.
Also, you might want to use a newer version, since when you open KOReader through "Start in documents", the Home/House button opens the File Manager, and I believe only the newer versions have an "X" that you can use to exit the app from there. There is a fix posted somewhere in this thread that creates an additional button for exiting the app, which I used before, if you want to use the stable version.
I hope the screenshots will be of help.
