I definitely would
not want to try to read PDFs (any PDFs, illustrations and charts would make it worse) on a standard eReader. I own an HP TouchPad, which mostly gets "used" once a month when I recharge it, but I do have a PDF Asterisk (VoIP phone switch) manual that displays well on it. If I were still active as a Nortel (now Avaya) PBX tech, I would definitely look into loading my PDF manuals on to a tablet. But, in my case, this would be more like browsing or looking up specific references.
You're right, there is no one solution. Whatever works, works.
