with hi-def colour images yes, but we are talking about a black & white 6 inch display. If the epub images were optimised for the device there's no way that 8 books would be 1.5GB. For that type of book, a colour tablet or net book would be far better than an e-ink e-reader

I'd still like someone to quote titles & prove me wrong.

Also the kindle PW 2 has only 256 MB of RAM. total.
make the book bigger than that & it will likely choke on it. it could not even index such a book without using a page/swap file mechanism
