People exadurate everything.

"OH JESUS IT TAKES SOOOOOOO LONG TO TURN PAGES!!" - takes less time than turning a page in a real book

"ITS GOT SUCH SMALL MEMEORY!! I WANT TO KEEP 800 TRILLION COPIES OF WAR AND PEACE ON MY READER!!" - You dont.


I have around 50 books on my reader. I take off ones ive read. It works wonderfully. Be abit patient.
