I'm severely disappointed by the time required to index the SD card, though. If it's taking 6 minutes, they're either doing something very seriously wrong in their programming or there's something to the work required that is extremely non-obvious. I've indexed filesystems much bigger than that in 1% of the time on much MUCH slower hardware.

Sure I will do the test again - this time without the pictures/Nikon stuff, I will copy those folders on my PC first and back after - just the books. I will add some more pdf's including a 100 MB one just for fun, and the indexing starts from zero since I deleted the Sony folder from the card.
For lrf sd books the first open was consistent at 15 s - I tried the first 3 or 4 from the list, but I will try various sizes just to let you know since I have some big ones - a 6.7 MB lrf is the biggest actually - and also I will do Vorpal Blade
I am very happy how fast my 700 is - without sd though - and how well it deals with the pdf's I tried. I got tired of extracting text from the pdf e-arcs I've been reading for review so I requested print most of the time.
With the 700 I just dump them there, no preparation, and all until now worked nicely - some reflow super, others I need to use half page horizontal, but all are fast.
I will try several math pdf books on the sd just for fun
