I think it is not a fair comparison to measure page turn speeds against a computer/PDA with LCD display.
That looks very nice. I've been reading on a Sony for over a year, and while the page turns are normally fast enough, it'd be nice to have something a *little* faster. (The few times I've tried to read MMPBs in the last six months have driven me crazy--you need two hands! And the pages keep slipping! And it takes so long to turn them!)

I also like the extensive filetype support, esp. pdb. I made a lot of pdb files when I used the Clie, and I haven't had the energy to re-convert most of those.
