Hi Ed,

I was really interested in this topic and did a wide review. All the
economical ereaders (nook touch, kindle touch, kobo, etc) are really
jumpy/flashy when handling pdfs, and certainly lack "pinch zones" and
smooth scrolling. IMO, this really distracts from the reading experience,
having suffered the Nook 1st gen for a long time and its deplorable pdf
abilities. For much more $$$, the Ectaco Jetbook and Kyobo Mirasol (both
colour E-inks) seem to be the ultimate solution. I've no experience with
either, but the few youtube reviews show dazzling pdf abilities (smooth,
fluid scrolling).

Obviously, if you give up hopes for e-ink, then all the usual colour/lcd
tablets have great pdf abilities, as on any regular computer. This is the
route I went, because they also offer apps like Zotero, Dropbox, Pocket.
