Scientific 2-column pdfs with pictures on 902/903 - how do they look

I've tried reflow under pdfviewer with some of my O'Reilly technical PDF files, and it does work for figures that are images, but does a pretty bad job with figures that are drawings. Captions, code snippets, equations, tables, unindented section headers,... also get muddled up badly by pdfviewer, likewise for AdobeViewer.

I'm sure reflow is fine for documents with text in paragraphs with the odd image in between, like say illustrated novels, but it's really not up to handling moderately complicated technical documents. However, as I said before, the large display 90x devices don't really need PDF reflow, so I'm not particularly bothered about it. I'm happy to read my technical PDFs using the other zoom modes.

same here - I have just tried again with several files, and it does not work (though I do not know whether I only had drawings or also images that were not reflown properly). I have firmware 2.0.4 installed.
