OK so now I can write on PDFs without freezing the machine, so that has solved one problem. The percent slider was found and found to be useless. It only works for the first 19 pages.
Other annoyance with this unit are that it has a little light that flashes when it is in standby mode. Fine in daytime, but terrible at night if you've been reading in bed.
Also, that the matte reflective layer behind the LCD screen means that you need to read with diffuse lighting. If you are in a chair with a reading lamp behind you then the unevenness of the reflection causes eye strain.
No, the final verdict is that the EA800 is a catastrophe of a device, to be avoided at all costs.
