The comment from Mdp is correct. When there is sufficient power from the cpu more frames are added, I can take advantage of them by moving quicker along the page. This can be seen on my slower device on an eink friendly browser when I disable javascript. This did not seem apparent from watching online videos.

It's not easy (if you don't already have the device) to get a good idea of the "extra usability" of these ereaders. The videos online can be confusing, because they show not enough, or sub-optimal conditions/settings. I found this especially to the case with the videos of the n96 series browsing the internet. Of course, most people don't expect that anyone will use eink for a computer. But then why do people spend $1000 on a Paperlike?

In fact, after getting my n96ml (200 used!) I have been from the start very happy using the browser to read news, reviews, articles (someone else may not)

How pleasurable and fortunate to be using a computer that manipulates ink particles so I can sit out in the sun messing around on a linux based OS.

The one thing I do miss is the side by side notes of the Note.
