IMO:

A5 size books or re-flowed text is okay, but A4 PDFs are not nice on the Iliad.

The Iliad's screen ( probably due to the way it is mounted in this device, rather than an inherent flaw ) makes the device too fragile to be something to "take it anywhere".

The Iliad is a dead device, abandoned by its manufacturer, and the only improvements to the inadequate built-in software are coming from the open source community, which is slow-moving at best ( no offence guys - I'm one of you ! ).

Unless you have cash to burn, I would wait for a better-engineered device with better software from an established manufacturer - I regret my investment in the Iliad.
