I was excited about the idea, but PDFs are a big issue. I want my content as RSS feed, please (although having a RSS feed announcing new PDF issue could work...).

Edit: The problem is that PDFs are basically usability wise readable only on iPad and even then not that spectacular. Also my iPad usually stays at home so no reading from laptop or from phone either.

I agree PDFs are really hard to read sometimes. Especially with the two column layout that's really popular on research papers.

This is probably because PDFs are supposed to be a format for printers. What's readable on paper is not necessarily readable on a screen.
