My phone has a fair web browser, access to all 3 of my email accounts, my online calendar, and all my contacts, and so on. I don't need a e-book reading device to do any of that.
But if you had a device capable of being fast enough to display those files and probably with a wireless chip built in as they are trivial to add and cheap compared to cost v extra functionality it would bring why would you not have a web browser on there for people that did want one. and wouldnt it be sensible if someone emailed you a PDF to be able to open it on the larger device? email functionality would again cost virtually nothing to add so why would you not want it?

How exactly are you planning on getting PDF onto this device?
