The PDF reader with N900 is great. It just lack the ability to remember which page you are on for the documents, this is very inconvenient.

Or, another possibilty... Is there a pdf to html converter? Zooming or moving around a html document using a browser like Opera is quite good.

pdf readers don't wrap - because pdf's are basically just images.
e-book readers wrap.

Like word-wrap for PDF documents. A PDF was word-wrapped by the creator of the doc, and saved as PDF to keep this exact layout.
PDF is a format to conserve the look of a designed document, completely, inclusive fonts, width of text fields, all graphics and so on. What do those "PDF readers" of Android or iOS do when you feed them a complex poster, advertisment or whatever?
PDF was never meant to be for reading long texts on computer screens, leave alone smartphone screens. Some other formats are much better for this, the best is HTML which was designed for onscreen reading from the beginning.
Just my opinion...

I disagree.. PDF on Nokia n900 is great for reading long texts. Personal taste I suppose.
I also think line wrapping is not necessay. if you cannot read a PDF document on 100 percent on the Nokia N900, you either need to use your glasses or curse the idiot who created the PDF with an abnormally small font.
All PDF that is readable on a computer screen is also readable on normal 100 percent zoom on N900 standard pdf reader.
