Well, I actually went ahead and bought a book from mobipocket. It's from P.J. Farmer, called "The Green Odyssey", a book I have not read yet.

I started reading but found that I have some problems. It's really strange...I used to read a lot on my Iliad before I went for the STAReBOOK...and the page-truning speed was never an issue for me. Now, I get really impatient because it feels like every pageturn takes forever. Is the mobipocket turning speed somehow slower than PDF or am I just used to the faster turns on the STAReBOOK???
I'm really and honestly amazed how little the terrible font and the serious reflowing problems on the STAReBOOK bugged me and how much the speed of the Iliad is now getting to me. i'm not trying to discredit the Iliad...no way...I'm really happy to finally see some real progress (and Mobipocket is REAL progress) but somehow I don't know whether i'll be able to readjust my reading habits to the Iliad...
