Harry... page flip is a great feature to browse and return. That's definitely part of the answer, but unfortunately wouldn't solve my issue because it's still (relatively speaking for my purposes) too slow.

Dale... I've left iOS for a season, so can't try that particular app. But I will try scroll mode in my other apps. For some kinds of fast scanning that might work well, depending on how much before and after gets cached, and whether or not I need to move through a book much non-linearly.

In the past, the limitation has been that after speeding ahead a page or two, apps have had to catch up with the page loads, so it really doesn't go very fast (especially for PDFs). But I haven't really tried that in a while, so will give it another go in the apps I'm using.

Thanks to both of you for the great input!
