Bads: I can never get the pdf reader to work properly. Whenever I zoom to several levels to a readable size, my V3 simply hangs. The pdf are academic papers downloaded from the web. I know they are not scans, as I can cut-and-paste from evince under Linux.
BTW, can anyone tell me how to reflow the text in pdf?

If the PDF academic work is just text for the most part, then convert it to .mobi or something. Download the Mobipocket Reader program, open it up then drag the PDF file to the Mobipocket Reader window. This instantly converts the PDF to an open .mobi file. So far the most painless way I've found to convert PDF's.
Then just rightclick, open containing folder, copy the .mobi file to the device/SD card or whatever you do to get it on the device.
Text is usually correctly paragraphed, formatted and justified as according to the PDF. Images don't play fair though.
