Non-Apple piece of information: My end solution wound up being to order an International version of the Kindle DX from Amazon which (hopefully) will be delivered in "2 to 5 months", and I can then install PDF reader software on it.

That's painfully slow for PDFs. Not to mention that isn't getting firmware upgrades.

I had one few years ago just after came out. I was happy with it just few days until I discover how slow it was.

And it's a shame, because their size is perfect for that type of books. But the lack of Amazon support and high price is a killer, at least for me.
