So one problem I see for the iLiad and the Gen3 are books in Mobipocket that need the graphics to be viewable properly. That means the books could be possibly useless. I do hope if anyone purchases such a book that the book is returnable.
i'm on the fence trying to decide whether to return mine or not. and this is a big one in the return column. i downloaded the sample of 'clash of thrones' which has a map of the kingdom and it was completely useless. i still have found no way to enlarge such embedded images insitu, that is, in the unit itself. even a small jpg i transferred over i can do nothing with on the kindle.
