How is it different from when you turn on a wi-fi radio in your phone? It's a bit like complaining that your car runs out of fuel quicker when you drive faster.

You can't blame the device just because some 3rd party apps that are not optimised for it don't work well there. There a lots of rubbish Android apps that don't work well on phones/tablets either. I would recommend contacting the vendors of your favourite apps and requesting them to supply, for example, themes that are compatible with ereaders. They may not even be aware that users consume their apps in such a way.

I'm afraid that you won't be buying anything then because Amazon (amongst others) also seems to hate that strategy (plus other factors I suppose), otherwise where are all the big ereader alternatives? I'd rather have something (that largely works) from Onyx than nothing from everyone else.

And what is wrong with the pdf *reading* experience on M96. It opens documents and you can browse documents, as far as this particular functionality is concerned is there any problem there?
