I just ran across this: How to view PDF files on the Kindle « Amazon Kindle Guide, Free Books & Resources

There may be a way after all. I also noticed that the Kindle also renders jpegs. Acrobat (if you have it) converts pdfs to jpegs for nothing. I don't know how much storage that would use up, but it sounds like an option too.
