i bought the book.
It's ok - the figures are a little light in terms of contrast but viewable.
I'm really bummed that the search this book isn't working.
but the TOC and text to speech work
if you are able to listen to tachycardia pronounced ta - CH (like chuck) - ycardia.

i called customer support about search this book not working. They said they will do quality control on it. I think it is because the book is so dang big - 128 or so mb.

the bible is the book they use saying it will download in about 1 min. The guy on the phone said it would download in about 30 min. better to dwnld to computer and transfer over (to the documents folder).
