Quite well actually, the zoom works really nicely and the screen is big enough for my eyes. Which aren't the best (-3.5 or so).

iRex 800 may be equal after the firmware update, we have to see. BeBook Neo/Onyx Boox is even as well, but has a (significantly) smaller screen. Que and Skiff may be similar, we'll have to see. And of course you still can go for iRex 1000S. |

My experience with PDF's on the iLiad:
On the iLiad PDF's work the fastest -- both in loading and navigating -- compared with other filetypes. And when properly formatted they also look the best. I format all books(fiction) for my iLiad in OpenOffice, based on a custom template and then I export them to PDF. When I just got my iLiad I loaded a few dozen PDF's on it, but some took ages (several minutes) to load. After a few resets I got so annoyed with those I decided to create everything with OpenOffice (which produces the fastest PDF's) and I've been a happy reader ever since. Some of those bad PDF's I fixed. I remember they had to do with multiple images on one page (Baen-pdf's for example). So I removed those pages with Adobe to make them work. |
