Thanks.
And, in regards to PDFs, I share your feelings. PDFs are nothing but an aggravation... but we have to live with them, probably for quite a while... there's so much content out there that is only available in PDF.

When it comes to making my own ebooks I prefer PDF. I find it the best choice for my ereader because it provides me with a level of format control that I haven't found with other formats. For example, with RTF I've been unable to consistenly display an intended font type.
However, I strongly agree that PDF doesn't work well when the document is not formatted for your ereader's screen size. With PDFs of that type I don't bother even trying to read them on my ereader.
I don't fault PDF for its limitations since its purpose is to render a document exactly as intended by the creator. This is something that other formats are not as good at (and a reason for PDF's creation).
