True enough, but thats also ignoring reality - there is already a ton of 
content in PDF format and it will be around for a long time. Most ebook 
readers (<cough>Kindle DX<cough>) will have PDF support at some point.

Personally, I think the PDF readers on Maemo are pretty good - I just wish 
they would remember page and zoom level per document, but apart from 
that the reading experience is pretty good for me.
