Which is faster?

GerG · 01-14-2011, 09:24 PM

Hi all, I've had my reader for about a year now and I just noticed it took a while to open only one book up. I'm just wondering is it because I'm using the readers memory? I only have a few books on it so its not like it is almost full. But is it better to store my books on the reader's memory or should I go to the SD-Card and would that help solve the opening issue?

Thanks.

Could just be the book... different books can take differing amounts of time depending on type of book, quality of production, embedded fonts, layout etc.

I second 'elcreative' that the type of book and formatting of the book can cause longer load times.

PDFs should be the fastest to open, as no pre formatting is needed.
