I've tried PDF documents with some interesting formatting (like Battletech Technical Manuals and rulebooks) and they work fine on the Libra (and presumably the Forma) when the same files chugged on the Aura H20 or Aura One. Page turns are noticeably faster, and much better when compared to the HD (before I sold it), or the One which is just a generation behind.

With poison plain old text and no fancy graphic elements on the page edges or drawings in the middle, I expect a much better experience, even when reflowing text.

Plus, the page buttons make it subjectively more enjoyable to me. It's amazing how much I missed page turn buttons after they got rid of them on the Touch and Glo.
