I have been interested in this device since its presentation on Cebit.
I am especially interested in its pdf features.
As I am working in science, the pdfs I usually read are two-column, small font, mixed up with graphs and images, probably the most complicated ones that you can get.
I would like to know whether reflow works on these complicated pdfs, whether annotation works in zoom mode, whether the zoom mode is kept up when turning a page (on the prs-600, zoom is reset after every page turn), whether search functions work in a zoomed in page and so on...
It won't reflow a page with a graph. I tried this PDF. It also dropped the equations, unfortunately.

The zoom settings do persist when you change the page. If you are zoomed in on for example the lower right quadrant of one page, when you turn to the next page you will see the lower right quadrant. Reflow is also persistent. If you have the font set to a particular size, the text will be that size on every page.

Search should work while zoomed because it appears to check the whole document. At least, when they get it working I expect it to behave this way. Search doesn't work yet.
