Depends on what you want to do with the PDFs. If you don't need to highlight and annotate, and don't use the TOC support, then the Kindle DX is fine; I said fine as my PDF books have a regular content page ala normal paper books, so all I did was do up the pages properly and then set a bookmark in the DX for the PDF so that when I need to go to the content page, I can do so easily via the bookmark.

Of course, I would have loved the ability to highlight and annotate but I am willing to forgo that for a smaller price tag relative to the iRex 1000, and yet have a larger screen of 9.7" as compared to the 6" Sony readers which have the features but lacks the screen asset...
