and turning pages with this huge button was also recognized as bad by other user in this forum, because the button sometimes recognizes the pressing for page turns as something other input (dont know whats going on if you hold the button longer, but the iliad does something unwanted ^^)

and the size of the DR is a bit under the size of A4 not bigger

edit: i just saw that the DR should be able to show thumbnails

and a last big point i saw in a movie on youtube, was to change the view on the DR to a overview of the next 20 pages in a document
so that you see little icons with the pages like the miniature viewing in windows
is this able on the iliad?

are you also able to connect ntfs formatted hard disks via usb to the iliad?
"In its cover, it's bigger than A4". Without cover, it's a bit smaller than A4.

Concerning turning pages with the huge "flip" on iLiad: If you press it for about 1 second, it jumps a few pages (5 pages if I remember correctly) at once. Never happened by accident to me, works like a charm.

On iRex 1000S you can see thumbnails. But only thumbnails of symbols, for example the Adobe sign for PDF files. But you don't see thumbnails of the books covers, like it's done on Sony 700 or Cybook Gen3. Huge symbols neither is looking good, nor does it help. Thumbnails of book covers on the other hand...

The miniature view you describe is only available on iRex 1000S, not on iLiad. Never use it though.
