I think that you are somehow going in circle - stating not fact but what you believe to become a fact when (if) Onyx will implement such a feature. You believe that it can be done, will be done and when done, will perform reasonably fast and good, without any negative side effect for overall performance of the Boox ereader.

To bring this issue to a close I can only offer to you a few closing remarks:

1. We will see if, when, what and how will be implemented by Onyx under the header of "multitasking".

2. True multitasking is not about freezing one process and then going to another one (whic h sems to be implemented in PocketBook), but to be run two processes at the same time. A very telling story here, whether this is esy or not to be implemented in a constrained device, has already been written by Apple - it is Iphone case.

3. Even when we limit the true multitasking to "ability of switching from one book to another", maybe it is not quite a piece of cake in case of constrained device. Otherwise Onyx could implement that "gadget" in M92, for obvious benefit of being competitive against PocketBook.
