Please cite these "all accounts" as over in the Kindle forum we're all praising how nicely the Kindle DX display PDFs properly. I agree it would be nicer if it were even larger still, but it's very readable.

But they offer even MORE "squished" PDF reading. Stop switching horses in midstream to suit your argument. EInk readers are better the small cell phones and netbooks for reading ebooks, and the Kindle DX specifically is better for reading PDFs than the others. When I said Amazon was winning, that's what I was talking about.
