Of course I read text, just not in pdf format. Pdf is good for fixed formatting. But on your reader you have to have more control on the way the text appears. Maybe the font is too small for you. Ebook readers give you the option to change font size, and it is a very important option to have, especially if the pdf is based on a page size larger than your screen. Pdf ebooks have very unexpected behaviour when you change the font size. Sometimes the formatting becomes downright weird and unpleasant when you do this. I think some readers that don't support reflow, don't let you change the font size of a pdf at all.
A good and popular ebook format is ePub. If you end up buying a kindle, you could convert your ebooks to mobi (prc). Once you have successfully OCRed, you can convert your book to anything you want. There are a lot more formats, but these two are the most frequently used, and they do their job better than pdf.
