There are certainly limitations to what the Kindle can do (subcollections anyone?). It'd be nice to have the Kindle handle local document links - then you could create any kind of linked catalog that you want.

Testing with more books per collection shows there is definitely a slowdown, even on the K3.

With 600 books, 20 collections, 10 of which contain 600 books each, it takes up to 10 seconds to settle after disconnecting from usb, 5-6 seconds to open a collection of 700 books, 5-10 seconds to go from inside a book to the home screen. Without the 10 large collections its more like a second or two.

These times don't seem to be as bad as the DX so maybe in v3.1 they improved things a little bit.
