I have tried four different 5" and 6" e-ink devices and as far as PDF is concerned (especially the scanned PDFs), they all suck.
Well, I didnt say there are 6" devices that handle PDFs perfectly. I said there are better choices out there than the Nook in this case. I am leaning towards Onyx Boox for example, cause it at least has landscape mode and margins removal ability. I havent tested Onyx (Bebook) though so I cant say with 100% assurance how good it is in PDFs but reviews says its pretty descent. You can also crop PDFs and put em in landscape mode but again...Nook does not have landscape mode either.
