If they're working as fast as you're describing on the iLiad, I'm quite impressed by that.
Well, the same PDFs may take a second or two to load on my PC, and there is no noticeable delay in paging. Nowhere near 10 seconds per page, I am not even talking about 10 minutes per page.

The iLiad PDF viewer seems to be the only well working document viewer on that platform (that is as far as I have read in the discussion forums, I have no hands-on experience with iLiad at all). Yesterday on Russian E-Book Forums there was a posting by the guy who resells Jinke's ebook readers in Russia and Ukraine, and he claims to have tried image based 80 MB PDF on the new Jinke V2 (Jinke V8 didn't read PDFs), and supposedly there was absolutely no delay in paging. I am sure we would have to wait 20 minutes to turn one page of an 80 MB PDF with our Sony Readers.
