The only suggestion I can propose is to use native WOL format. It seems, that page turning is much faster with it (and there is great FB2->WOL convertor software, you can prepare a book with you favourite fonts). But as the disadvantages you'll get huge files without the possibility to change font size "On the fly".
Thank you, torbich. Do you know if some other format (html, rtf) has less problems with the display drivers? I don't like WOL format, as you said it lacks flexibility.
