But my Android tablet is great for reading PDF's. I don't think e-ink readers really do PDF well as they could. Its either a compromise between screen size and/or speed of rendering.
To me, the problem with PDF on eInk is readability. Most PDF are made with very large margins and on a 6" screen, the readability is not all that good. I now it gets better the larger the screen. One feature that all eInk Readers (that handle PDF) should have is the ability to crop the margins. Not all do and that's a problem.

KoReader does have such a feature and that helps a lot with PDF.
