Oh, I would actually *like* to have a reader that could handle pdfs. I would like to be able to read (/search/annotate) articles from academic and scholarly journals that are only available as pdfs at present. I don't imagine I'm going to have much luck persuading journal editors to switch electronic formats when they have a backlist going back years and often more than a decade in pdf.

However, that doesn't mean that I agree pdf is the best format for ebooks, as Sonist appeared (I thought) to be saying.
