Hi,

I'm new to PRS-600. So far, I've dumped a couple of ePub books to the main memory, and a few to a 4 GIG SD card. When accessing the 4 GIG SD, it seems there is always a rather bad lag. For example, when I double-tap on the top right hand corner to dog-ear-bookmark the page, it takes about 9-10 seconds before the dog-ear appears.

If the books are in main memory, it's almost instantaneous.

Can someone pls comment what is the speed for his/her SD card to make a bookmark? I'm wondering if getting a faster SD card will help, but I understand faster SDs are mainly improving the writing speed and not the reading speed.

Thanks!
