I also have several manning ebooks and also several pragmatic bookshelf PDFS. Reading them on the Sony et al is not fun.

You best bet it to get a larger reader. The iRex Iliad or even better the iRex DR1000. However, the DR1000 is about the same as an inexpensive laptop... $800ish. But, the PDFs will display in full size... the DR1000 is about as big as an 8.5x11inch sheet of paper.

Personally, I want a device to read these type of books also.. but can't justify $800 for the DR1000... so I wait and just stick to reading this stuff on the PC or on paper.
