I removed the SD card and reset the unit, then opened a secure eReader Book (Reserved for the Cat by Mercedes Lackey). The same problem. Every so often some text is missing. I can shift to landscape and read the missing text, but then in a few pages some text will be missing again in landscape mode.

So I'm back to reading my books on my netbook (in Linux) and on my Palm Tungsten :-(. I really like the form factor of the Jetbook Lite and it works well with some text files. But most of my ebooks are secure eReader. I bought this from ereader.com with every expectation that it would work well with their books. If the problem isn't solved soon I'm going to have to try to return it as defective. By definition a functional ereader should show all the text. Maybe I'll wind up with a Nook, or maybe just spend the bigger bucks and get a tablet netbook. There should be software available to read almost any format on that!
