With respect, I disagree.

You cannot use a 6" screen to display an A4 document properly; that's not Sony's fault, but simple "common sense". PDFs created for the Sony's screen size - eg the Reader Manual - displayed in a perfectly acceptable manner.

Again, the fact the PDFs can't sensibly be "re-flowed" is not Sony's fault - it's inherent in the format.

PDF is a terrible format for eBooks. That's not what it was designed for, and not what it's good for.
