Abandon ye all hope at the present moment for text PDFs *if* reflow is used. The moment reflow is engaged the slowdowns are excruciating. Now I have not tried it with pinch and zoom, and I will tonight when I get home, but personally I don't want to use my reader that way. I'll post the results to this thread tonight.
I am a bit skeptical that Sony will address this in a FW update, so I would wait and see.

Another related question: guys, if the device can be rooted, would another reading application work any better, or is this PDF slowdown issue too low level, and would affect all software reading applications?
