1. It is not easy to read pdf files. Maybe it is just me, but you can't just turn the page in a pdf file. Instead, it has to load each page and it takes too long.
My Kindle is the same way.. I use a free utility that is amazing for conversion from pdf to epub. http://www.pdftoepub.com/
It formats for a 7" kindle or epub reader and turns the pdfs to nice epubs.
I've had my NC for only a day and I'm truly LOVING it... Will write more later.

Thanks for this conversion utility. I did not even think of that. The page up and down does not always work for me, but sometimes it helps. There seems to be more than one kind of pdf file. Sometimes, there is a page number in the upper right hand corner that shows up when you touch the corner, and if that is there, I can't leave a bookmark. However, when that is not there, I can leave the bookmark. I also think it makes a difference if there are more or fewer pages. I have a few entire books in pdf and these are the ones that are hard to turn the page. If the pdf is just a few pages, the up and down works for me too.
