The kindle does support PDF and seems to do it quiet well, I just prefer to convert documents that are all text and have no graphics or much layout at all for the ease of reading them without having to zoom in and scroll about as I would have to with PDF format.

Hopes that clarifies alittle.

idraw22: I didn't have a kindle when it happened but apparently the books aren't meant to be released from the publisher of "harrypotter"(I think) did not have a digital version but it was being circulated. So amazon decided to have a call back and got many angry customers. They have since apologized and it had not occurred again. I think that it is highly unlikely that if you uploaded your own books that weren't bought from amazon that they would remove it off your device. If you do get really paranoid, I suppose you could turn 3g or wifi off and never use that function
