I'm converting .txt files to .pdf files with all required page and font sizes using the MS Word 2007 in-built converter. The pdf files come up big, usually, with more than 1000 pages. Two problems...

1) It takes about 10-15 seconds for PRS-505 to turn a page if the number of pages in a book (i.e., the size of the pdf file) is large;

2) In both the eBook Library and the PRS-505 reader all pages after page 1000 are coming out plain blank. If I open the pdf file with Adobe Acrobat directly from within the PRS-505 directory, the file is okay. Go figure...Now I'm splitting the large books into two or three smaller books in order to be able to read them!

I have both iLiad (me) and PRS-505 (my wife). There is no place for comparison. iLiad is much better in pretty much all aspects (except the price, of course). Oh, by the way, calling the Sony tech support is a waste of time.
