If you read both pages of a pbook and then turn the page then it would probably be about the same.

When I read a pbook, as I'm reading the left hand page I'm separating the right hand page to get ready to turn it. Then as I'm reading the last line of the right hand page I'm already starting to turn it and by the time my eyes are back up to the top left hand corner it's already flipped. For me, it's definitely faster than waiting for an e-ink refresh (or the page turns some LCDs have where it's side to side as if it's a pbook page).

It's only a tiny thing but that little interruption gets more and more annoying to me the longer I read rather than getting used to it.
