Splitting PDF pages?

So, I've a PDF file that has two pages scanned together, side by side. It's a pain in the ass to read things like this with the down scrolling and the up scrolling and the oh my god. Reading from a monitor is bad enough.

So I was wondering if there is a program that can just look at the dividing line between the two sides, or even a rough pixel width number, and just chop it and put it as page 1, then 2, then 3 rather than 12, 34. I googled a bit but only found PDF splitters which seems like if I wanted to take only a certain couple pages out, not to split the image itself in half.

Does the software I want only exist in my mind?

    From the Kindle thread, although I haven't tried it myself:

    So if my PDF's often come as scans of books, with two pages to a .. page. Is there going to be any easy way to split those in half so I can actually read one page at a time?

    look up a piece of software called Quite Imposing. It's a plugin for Acrobat that lets you crop / split / 2 or 4 up, and a whole bunch of other great stuff.
