Yes, I find that a little silly, too. Maybe it's because I'm aware of the delay and, after transferring a number of books via USB I make a point of opening the big ones and getting the formatting out of the way before I actually want to sit down and read them. I tend to be impatient, and I'd rather not be on the train with nothing to do while a book formats. That said, it's a pretty minor irritation and not a reason to pan the device (or ebooks in general) completely.
