My brand spanking new Gen3 arrived today!

So now while it's charging, I thought I'd ask a couple questions regarding the various ebook (DRM-free) formats it supports:

1. Is there any difference between the time needed to turn a page for each format or are they roughly the same?

2. I have a lot of old books in TXT format - is there any point converting them to another one?

3. I also have a lot of books in cyrillic in RTF format - I assume convertion won't be bad as they are 2-3 times bigger than normal books? If so, which format would be the best to convert to?

I also have another question - is there a way to turn off the LED blinking everytime I sneeze at the reader? The only time I'd want it on is when I'm charging the latter.
