Of course I am, since you're making certain catagorical statements about a format, that very few people are downloading your tagged PDF's. Well, afaik I don't believe you can say that because of the way your page is set up which hides the fact that the "PDF2"'s are tagged PDF's.
I'd split the ones for PC and the ones for handheld device reading onto seperate lines, it's clearer and gets you the space to put reflow-PDF or tagged-PDF in. You say there's a limited amount of work, and I'd agree, but having a website laid out to catch people's eye can drastically increase their interest and it's a mistake to go to the trouble of making a book and not take the last step of getting people to read it.
So many people throw together web pages without understanding the useability arguments. I have been, for reference, involved in game UI's and useability and the principles are the same.
