Duokan Lite viz a viz Duokan
I had been using Duokan and today I set up Duokan Lite. I had played with it sometime back but then switched back to Duokan.
I was very happy to see the Epub support and it was delight to see that PDF rendering is at par with Kindle. But here is what I miss Duokan because the Lite version lacks these:

1. PDF files Index is not available, just like Kindle. It makes navigating PDF files pain in the neck. Why can't Duokan lite have this feature when Duokan had it.

2. Flexible zooming like Region zooming came very handy with PDF files having white space around which could be removed easily. This too was a great Duokan feature missing in the lite version.

3. Font choice and ability to play contrast is also also missing.

And this issue of input being sent to both the OS, as pointed by thomass, is also frustrating.

In view of these, despite excellent text resolution and the ability to switch between the two OS, I may be forced to switch back to old Duokan. Wish there was a way of getting better PDF text rendering on old Duokan...
