the big page issue is a bit annoying.
I went as far as to write a perl script that extracts resizes and then zips or rars the images again, rough but works ok...

you can run this on a linux bucket prior to putting the files on your iliad it sizes to fit in to 768x1024 or 1024x768 for 2 page spreads and such.
it dumps the new files in a Iliad folder located in the directory where you run it from, it also extracts to temporary folders in that directory.
here it is
dependencies include perlmagick perl imagemagick rar zip.

i'd like to take a look at the sources of the ireader and it is great but i 'd like a 2 page spread to b viewable as a two page spread not on a single page etc.
stuff like that (i'm good with java or c(++), and ok with perl).

this is not perfect to be sure but i had multiple comics i could only open 2 pages of.

p.s: while i converted my whole walking dead set, and gunm(battle angel alita) without a hitch somehow one "echo" file only ended up with 4 files in it instead of the 25-30 or so it was supposed to have.
