2. also, is it workiing well to read a 10mb pdf imaged file? will it be very slow?

Have a 650 not a T1, but what works on 650 should work on T1.

1) handwritten note, yes, definitely.

2) 10 meg pdf file? Dunno. That's pretty big. It will probably work. If it doesn't, just split it up into smaller files.

Personally I change scanned pdfs into indvidual jpg files, zip em up, change the suffix to cbz, and convert them to epub using calibre the same way you would a cbr/cbz comic file. This produces the best results with scanned pdf.

Hi!!

1) You can handwrite on imaged PDFs, but ONLY at original view mode. So you can do it if you set it landscape, portrait or reflow but you can't after crop margins or on zoomed PDFs. I hope alternative firmwares fix this. Nevertheless I think PRS-T1 offers one of the best PDF reading experience among all 6 inch ebook readers.

If text is recognized on a PDF, you can always (no exceptions) attach handwrite notes to a word or sentence

2)I tried a 120 mb imaged PDF. The device managed it flawlessly. From time to time page switching takes 3-4 seconds. However, there is something odd about this. Page switching will always be quick on some PDFs and slow on others, and it is not size related always.

Sorry for my english, I did my best XD
