I don't know what to say about the infamous e-ink page flip. Doesn't bother me at all. I've seen technology do far worse. I like how Jetbook's website says it will irritate your eyes. That made me chuckle a bit. I can see it irritating the mind, but not the eyes

Then again, maybe it's letting loose a snap of gamma radiation each time it does that! :-o

Its actually a simple reason, I'm prone to seizures and that "blip" could cause one. I sat reading an e-ink reader and got nauseous. Not a good sign.

PDFs, I don't feel I need that big a screen myself. I have my bus schedules and a comic book on mine and both read really easily and well.
