My understanding is that the speed has improved a bit, but I would bet the process is still tedious.
Comics also don't display vey well. The bit depth of the display isn't high enough to allow for it.
You might want to consider waiting, or looking at an android device, but there you will be getting a battery hog.

Manga displays quite well on my PRS-505, I have to say. I haven't tried colour comics. The PRS-950 now has a two-page view in landscape mode, so I think that makes scrolling through pages a lot easier. A larger reader, such as the Pocketbook 903 would probably be a better choice, but it would cost more and be less portable. There is also the Pocketbook IQ, which is an Android device with an LCD screen, but it is only $150.
