If you install PRS+ (v2.0.13 or higher) then the bit of the page which is shown on both screens is greyed-out a bit. This makes it very easy to keep your place when switching halves. I've found reading these types of PDFs on my 350 much more pleasurable with this feature.
Hmm, the T1 does away completely with this, and the K3 (my old FW) does not have it either. Maybe my PRS+ version is old, and I should upgrade. I found that scanned books are so, very, very slow, but then perhaps I should optimize them for mobile use with Adobe Reader. I would have appreciated the ability to turn this off, as most of my PDFs are text PDFs, but I see your point.
Maybe I'm missing it...IS there a way to turn this off??
