Okay, I think I understand the complications involved in reading A4 / letter PDFs. So my next couple of questions/requests... ;p

1) (How well) does the iLiad "reflow" A4 / letter PDFs to something more compatible with its size/resolution? Could somebody post an image of a typical example?

2) I've read that there are also options to eliminate the white border and do some zooming or whatever, to compensate for the incompatibilities between unmodified A4/letter PDFs and the iLiad's display. How seamless is this optional functionality (ie, do you basically turn it on and it's good to go until you're done reading that document?) It'd be great to see some visual examples of this process in action, too.

Thanks as always. Hopefully this information will be helpful to other prospective buyers, too.
