You can find Adobe PDF Reader for Windows, Mac, Linux, Palm, and also for Symbian. From my opinion, this is not the best PDF reader out there. I only use this application to read small PDF files or for making sure I have downloaded the correct file from the internet.

If you intend to read large PDF files, it might be better for you to just convert your PDF files to Mobipocket format, or even HTML format.

Adobe Acrobat Reader is only available for Nokia 6680, and can be downloaded from adobe.com

This application is quite good, and the only problem that I had was when I try a book on learning Thai language (since I planned to move there). The font for Thai language was not available for my phone, so the text only shows up as boxes. Lesson learned: always download the trial version of the book before you decide to buy anything.

If you use Windows, you can download an application that can be used to convert your existing documents (Word, PDF, text, etc) to Mobipocket format. You can even subscribe RSS feeds (from PC), and then synchronize the feeds to your phone.

This application can be downloaded from http://www.mobipocket.com. There are many free ebooks out there that can be read by mobipocket (the PalmDOC format) or can be converted to mobipocket, just look around.
