These are excellent images, and do a particularly good job of impressing on me the quality of the text on this reader.
If there's any possibility of seeing an example of a portrait-style JPG image of a resolution higher than the iLiad's (such as something scanned from a comic book at a typical scanned resolution, like 1180x1700)? This would be a good way of gauging how the iLiad commonly handles such images. There will be situations where I have collections of hundreds of such images, to be viewed in sequence based on the alphanumeric chronology of their filenames.
Thanks everyone for the great responses so far. While I definitely retain some misgivings over this reader - price, old E-ink technology, and a early '00s design which sinks the image into the bezel rather than keeping it neat and flush - it's pretty clear that its advantages are formidable. What's left on my plate is to see what's been done to tackle the Adobe Ebook problem, and to figure out the specific repercussions of the caveats about PDFs formatted as "letter" or "A4".
