That facility, coupled with ow slow Stanza is and how it crashes from time to time finally pushed me into the 'don't need it, adds no functionality eReader doesn't have' camp. I can read new releases from Fictionwise and read public domain books from Manybooks, and browse them just as prettily. What else could I ask for? Sorry, Stanza! Work out the bugs and run a little smoother, and we'll talk.
Aside from books using a single text flow, I don't see any reason why it would take 25 seconds to load.
