Sorry, I don't have the pictures at hand right now, however, I just passed about 1 hour reading scientific pdfs on the 800.
It is perfectly readable - though a little bit small. Landscape mode doesn't help at all it still shows the complete page on the screen - which makes it extremely small and unreadable. Increasing the font size helps, however usually formulas are getting messed up - in such cases I switched back to original layout (which is very fast).
I would say, you can use it for scientific pdfs, but it's not optimal. Therefore I hope IREX will add a zoom feature....
The graphs by the way are perfectly readable!
