Anyway, thanks all for venting with me. I'm thinking about loading up an SD card with some test PDFs and going back to Borders to see for myself how the Sony Reader displays them.
I was talking of manuscripts. Texts written by hand. There is no OCR for them. It is impossible to create software for that. Even historians often disagree in their interpretations and deciphering.
