hello formerroadie,

thanks for your very informative review and answers.

maybe you could explain two more things to me:

1. i own an (much overpriced) iliad. one of the nice things about it is the ability to zoom to a certain area by drawing a diagonal line with the stylus. can the prs 600 do this or something like this? or exactly how (by how many interface interactions) would you zoom to a certain area?

2. another nice things with the iliad is the ability to take (graphical) notes on pdfs, be it text-only or image-only or text-behind-image. and then (with additional software) have those notes integrated to a normal pdf on my pc. which i can print out etc. can the prs 600 (plus sony library or other software) do this, that is: a. take those notes (especially on scanned text-behind-image pdfs)? b. get those handnotes synced to "normal" pdfs? if so, what steps do you need to get to this?

i would be very grateful could you explain those points. thank you very much!

greetings,
c.
