Yes, the point was for the files to work on all the readers, instead of just the Kindle. To do that, you have to use a non-Kindle format, and ePub (a superset of PDF) is the most widely accepted. That gets you the kindle, Sony reader, Nook, iPad/iPhone, most Symbian devices, Android, and Blackberry devices. Most of the desktops and laptops with moderately recent PDF readers can also handle ePub.
Pure PDF doesn't reformat well for smaller screens or different orientations or font sizes. EPub was designed to cope better with all those things. ePub could be productively read and used on small phone screens; that's hard to do with PDF.
