I've heard that technical books and pdfs don't always render well on e-ink devices. Is that just for kindles which do their own conversion on pdfs, or is that true of most e-ink devices?

PDFs render just fine on a remarkable. Everything is grayscale, but I haven't noticed any rendering oddities.

Hmm, this is something I would like to know as well. I have been interested in e-ink ever since my first gen Nook (my only ever e-ink device, which was poor for reading PDFs).
