hi,
Ive got a bebook which I bought a few weeks ago, I have a lot of pdfs, but they generally dont cut the mustard on a bebook, the bebook (and other hanlin clones) have three levels of zoom for their pdfs - first one displays the whole pdf page including the margins - depending on the font of the pdf the letters are usually extremely small, on the second zoom the margins are cut out and the reading is usually bearable (again depending on the font), on the third zoom the page is rotated and you effectively can see the fisrt half of the page, pressing next page shows the bottom half of the pdf. On the second and third level zooms pages are readable, if not a tad bit small.
Having spoken with other users the general concensus is that if you are after just reading 'normal' ebooks, a 6" device is king, but for pdfs you really need to look at the iLiad - I've been told the new iLiad (DR1000), while not looking the greatest is actually extremely good for pdfs.
Be warned though there a quite a number of users that have bought their Iliad for study, but then sold them afterwards to get a 6" device for 'normal' reading, while the reader excels at pdfs, is not comfortable enough for everday casual use.
