Not so great. You tend to lose the formatting when you increase the font size. If you can read very small print you might be ok. The display is somewhat better in horizontal orientation. The page is split in two.

The undisputed master of PDF is iRex Iliad, but at a co$t.

This thread has a bit more info.
