Robertb,
I'm very interested in buying the new Pocket Pro, but I've got a few questions:

1. Many of the ebooks I have are pdf files containing scanned images of book pages. These files range in size from 5MB up to about 75MB. Will your device be able to handle such large pdf files? How long will it take to open such a file? How long to flip to the next/prev page? Will the zoom function work on image-based pdfs, and if so, will I be able to pan/scroll around on the zoomed page?

2. What color will the included case be? I've seen pictures on the Jinke site that show brown. I'd really prefer black.

3. Do you have photographs of the actual units in the various colors yet? I'm leaning towards a blue one, but I'd like to see the real thing (not a rendering).

Thanks!
