I don't want DR1000. It's not good for casual reading. It's big, the battery doesn't last that much and it will be inferior to devices like Que or Skiff. And it's quite ugly, but here it's not a beauty contest. It's a good tool for professionals, not for casual readers. And it's damn expensive (also DR800 is quite expensive, but I'm not commenting on that yet). So, please stop crippling the DR800 just because you want better sales for the DR1000. There are similiar devices on the market (hint: Sony), which are in the DR800 pricerange, have almost the same screen size and HAVE pdf zoom (I suppose annotation also). So what is the real reason for not having pdf zoom and annotation? Marketing the DR1000? Not enough time for implementation? No support from Adobe or problems with Adobe?
Also, the DR800 has the potential to be a great device and I would of bought it weeks ago if (1) it had pdf zoom and maybe annotation OR (2) it would of been 100€ cheaper
