I was looking over someone's shoulder and noticed their page turns are instantaneous. Is development working on this? Somewhere on this forum, someone mentioned something about chapters being cached but I can't see how this would help matters as user's hardly bother to switch between chapters. In the case of caches, I'd think both the previous and next pages should be cached so they can be called up immediately rather than what's happening now.

So am I the only one who is bothered by the performance of page turns? I'm on the wifi device using firmware 1.7.4 and I'm reading epubs that I purchased off of the Oreilly site.
