Upgrading the Gen3's firmware simply involves copying a file to the SD card, then rebooting the Gen3 with that SD card in it. It's totally "o/s-neutral".

So the Gen3 seems more userfriendly to the person who takes the time to work it out, hey?

Seems encouraging to me.

I have some pdfs of several suwar and they look nice.

I'm not worried about getting my hands on Arabic books, including beautifully typeset ones, or even handwritten manuscript scans. You can get a lot out of
Wikicommons and
Al-Mostafa.com (The second one is actually a non-profit book scanning project, or so it seems, regardless, it's a godsend for me, since I'm a heavy reader of rare and old books.
Ooh, another question, considering that a lot of Arabic PDF files are insanely huge:
Would the Gen3 or PRS-505 survive displaying large PDF files? Large being between 10 and 50 MB. Some of the scans, especially the big book scans tend to be quite heavy in size.
