I would agree with Kusuri. PDFs are page oriented and do not convert well to other formats. I would recommend a tablet (Android, iOS or Windows), most of which would also allow you to use PowerPoint to open a PowerPoint slideshow. At a minimum, if you must stick with eInk, look for a 10.3" minimum device.

One student friend of mine does convert PDF to epub and then edits them to fix them up but it is very labour intensive and the output generally has little resemblance to the input.
