Trying to understand something that is 200 years old, without pictures, is almost impossible.

If the PRS-700 can not display this test book, then I must cancel my order tonight.

I have tested this book - Rudimentary... 5 MB PDF Google Books and it displays almost all pictures and all tables but there are several pictures that are not displayed. The text is readable in vertical mode and perfectly eligible in horizontal half page mode. Navigation is a bit slower than usual, but still fast compared with any other small device and an image pdf in my experience.

To see which images are not displayed open the book in Adobe Digital since they do not display there either, though they DO display in the regular Adobe PDF reader. Or download the free Sony library software and dump the pdf into it and open it with the Sony software. That will also give a rough idea of how it looks on the 700 too in vertical mode.
