Speaking of PDF vs. dead trees...

Does anyone have any experience with the Sony Reader and plain PDFs?

    http://www.learningcenter.sony.us/assets/itpd/reader/index.html

The specs say it handles:

    BBeB Book / Adobe® PDF / JPEG / MP3 file (.mp3 file extension)

I saw it in a store, but the samples on it were the proprietary BBeB
format, not standard PDF.
