Hi All,

Since yesterday i am a happy owner of Kindle 3. Immediately i'm confronted by the following problem. When i want to highlight a line in a PDF file, nothing happens. At least nothing useful - the highlighted text unhighights itself as soon as click the 5-way the second time. When i press [Menu]->[View My Notes & Marks] it takes about 3 minutes to show the first page of my highlights and notes list. But all the highlights are empty - there are no texts. all i see is "Page 32 - Highlight", "Page 33 - Note" etc. going to the second page seems to take twice as long but i have not timed it.

Anyone has any ideas on what is wrong and what to do about it?

PS. Kindle 3 WiFi is jailbreaked, SS hack, font hack. FW3.0.3.
PDF document is ~300 pages and ~60MB in size. It used to be a 5MB book but i used Nitro PDF to crop the pages (get rid of huge white margines). For some reason the size increased tenfold...
