I've been using the reader for manga myself also, but I found it to be very capable. My procedure for prepping manga for the reader thus far has been thus:
Use Photoshop's Automate Batch to trim all the images (have to record a trim -> save -> close action first), getting rid of the white (or black) borders that manga tends to have. Then I use bimp to auto shrink the images to 600 x 800 (well restrict width and height, I am not actualy changing the proportions) and to convert the images to PNG format. Afterwards I use Adobe Acrobats "Create PDF from Multiple Files" feature to create the volume as a PDF.
The result has been perfectly legible for most of the series I have tried to do this with, and while there is about a 1.5s delay for a page turn, it's quite satisfactory for manga. Since most series are in greyscale anyway, I haven't found the 4 color limit to get in my way too much. Not yet at least. My main annoyance has been the flat file system, which keeps me from filling the reader up with manga.
