Can I say, as someone who isn't a Sony owner, that I think it's a bit unfair to blame either Sony or Adobe for the 'pdf problem'. The 'pdf problem' stems from designers who still think in terms of print design and who use pdfs precisely because it gives them rather than readers control over how the document looks. The same problem bedevils web design (as anyone who has ever used handheld to read website will tell you). That said gving readers only one choice (reducing the size of the document) seems like a mistake - but may have been dictated by what they were capable of doing.
