Playing Nice is the book used on the Vyage and it's 975KB. On the Glo HD they used Unbroken and it's 10923KB. So how is that a fair load time comparison? It's not.
Like I said, you must use same books,but i can't recall when I saw such a comparisation, it doesn't matter if the Kindle performs better or not, you can only judge when you use the same books under same circumstances, if then the outcome is that the Kindle is better, ok with me, it is more expensive to, but this comparisation is like many others,the work of amateurs,it does more harm then good.
