Not to be sarcastic, but you just have 2 eyes! lol ... You can read several books but not at the same time. The multitasking capabilities are something that you will see on music programs, for example, while you read a book or use a word editor (at the same time) but in terms of ereading experience, multitasking does not do too much.
Even on Android, my Galaxy Tab, if I am using Aldiko or Kindle for Android, I need to close that book before open the new one, I cannot keep two books opened using the same application. I can keep one opened on Aldiko and the other one on Kindle, and switch back and forth with the task manager, but still, won't display both books on same screen. Not 100% sure about this on Honeycomb but I believe is the same.
