Forget it.
Or rather, be happy if it works. PDF files are designed to a page size, and that page size is too rarely suitable for the screen of either device.
The Sony can do half-page landscape mode, and uses an Adobe implementation for PDF reader, so I'd rate it slightly higher that the iLiad. (Adobe implementation means, I'm willing to bet, that type hinting works better than with the iLiad -- some samples have been posted in other threads that to my mind suggest that hinting either was missing in the fonts used, or not correctly interpreted by the iLiad xpdf implementation.)

Are those specially formatted for these devices? If not, assume it won't work well. And ask for a demonstration before you buy.
