Not for physics. The original texfile is provided in the ArXiV for more than 95% of the papers. So it is possible to reprocess almost any of them for a 1024x792x16 display without margins.
For pdf/ps it could be more sensible to move them to pnm images, then pnmcrop to get rid of the margin, then recompress with algorithms of compression designed for b/w text pages, as in some pdf formats or in the dejavu format.
Also depending of the pdf, it could be possible to play with the boundingbox limits to wipe the margins; sure it can be done with acrobat, and perhaps with some unix utility.
