This behavior isn't the end of the world ... regular page turns work fine. It's only a problem if you want to switch between books or accidentally hit the zoom button. For shorter books performance is reasonable.

No, it's not an issue if you want to change books, because it's a "one time" behaviour. Once the Sony has paginated the book for a given font size (that's what it's doing during the delay) its stores that info and opening the book or changing the font size subsequently will be virtually instantaneous.
As others have said, you can avoid the delay altogether by loading the book onto your Sony via the "Connect" software - it will do the pagination for you in advance.
