I just downloaded it and loaded it onto my current SD card for my JBL library.
It did take a very long time to load it, I didn't time it but is easy to understand why
you could think it was something like the "Hourglass of Death".
I have since read through to the first page of the first OZ story. Then backed out of that and loaded a recently read book. Then used the recently read list again to load
the OZ Omnibus again and - it took 6 min. to load. Six minutes is a long time indeed,
when you are used to the normal quick response of the JBL.
When I shut it off and later turned it back on it came up on the last read page, in
pretty much the normal amount of time, at least it seemed normal to me.
I haven't tried removing the artwork but I suspect that may be causing most of the
delay. The cover art is most impressive, but for me it's the stories that matter.
Luck;
Ken
