I tried to convert a 68 Mb book to EPUB format using the Sony Reader profile (900, then 300, then normal). The converted book can be copied to iTunes and sync'ed to my iPad.

But when opened with iBook within iPad, the iBook just hang, nothing happen. So converted book seems to crash iBook.

Any ideas?

UPDATE:
I figure it out. Apparently, if my PDF file have lots of pages, it takes a LONG time for iBook to display the ebook (1-5 minutes). But afterwards, subsequent load is much faster. So maybe it's an iBook thing, given that it's on version 1.0 only.
