Please forgive me if this is old hat.

I am using the latest Mybebook.com firmware ("21th September").

I have another 6" reader I don't like, but it does turn pages faster. My BeBook seems to usually take two seconds, unless I do rapid single pages when it seems faster. All my files have been tried in subdirectories with no files in root on both SD and built-in memory.

I know that BeBook uses an older 200 MHz processor, but BeBook Mini has the newer 400 MHz one, and is reported as only marginally faster.

I find the BeBook behaviour odd, as follows (seems the same on DRM'd epub, PDF, mobi, rtf and FB2).

The green activity light shows as the page button is pushed, but it then goes out for almost a second, and then the activity light comes on again as the refresh takes place on the new page. If I push the button more quickly, without reading, I can get turns in about 1 second.

I suspect that the processor is being suspended very quickly after the refresh and that it takes nearly one second to re-activate after the wake-up signal from the button.

What I hope is that the suspend can be configurably delayed to read a page. Does anyone know about this? I would prefer to lose some battery life, as I sometimes get through a page fairly quickly.

Also, am I missing something? Can this be improved without (even with) a change in the firmware?
