I do too, but it's probably a lot harder than it sounds. The new device is running a different generation of the linux kernel and it's also got a significantly faster processor and more memory. As a software developer myself, I don't find it that hard to believe that the new and improved software just won't run on the older iLiad, or else be so resource intensive on the older hardware that it's unusable.
Still, I'd had hoped that at least parts of it are portable.

I'd still like to see a vid with the load up time (I hope they speed up/eliminated that) and it seems like the page turns havent sped up by much if at all. Also showing some Manga on there would be sweet. I assume it still has the same zoom features right?

Boot time is around 50 seconds, which is pretty much what the iLiad's boot time is. Coming out of suspend or hibernate mode is much faster.
I believe zooming is still supported.
