[QUOTE=gylman;315743]I've pondered this aplenty, because every day as I try to use my PRS 505 the limitations of poor pdf support become more apparent.

/QUOTE]

Why do you comment on the PDF support on the Sony 505? have you ever used it more than a few times on your 505?. I find the 505 to be quite adequate to support PDFs with reflow. If you but it on L size it reads quite well. If you are anal retentive you may not like the spacing that happens at times. However, the text reads quite well.

Why not be positive that Sony has actually added Re-flow for PDFs instead of complaining about it?

And as HARRY T and many have said. PDFs are NOT meant to be read on ebook readers. Many people on here read books in many formats beside PDF. Perhaps you should try it? Mobipocket and .lrf are quite good formats.

Kindles are selling quite well without PDFs....
