5 Questions about Kindle DXG!

Im pdf and VB fun and Im interested does Kindle DXG support these features:

1: Does it remember where u stop last time u read a book,and when
u turn it on next time resume from the same place?And is that the case if u read more books?Would kindle resume all books from the place u stopped?

2:If i read a pdf book of 200 pages and want to go directly to the
page 140,can i do that or need to go page by page?

3:If a pdf book has bookmarks do they work on KDXG? And does it display
the content and has possibility to jump from one chapter to another?

4: How is the experience on KDXG while reading Vbulletin forums?Any
pictures would be helpful.

5: Does kindle have anti-radiation support?I've read for example on HANVON'S website that their readers have no radiation at all.

Hello rammbam,

1: yes - also with more books
2: yes - "Go To" function is in the menu
5: yes - I believe this applies to all e-ink devices

Best wishes

3: no, that's one of the problems with the pdf support. no support for internal bookmarks, no table of contents.

Any electronic device emits electromagnetic radiation. That's why it has to be certified by the appropriate regulatory bodies (the FCC in the USA).

The Kindle does not support "table of contents" or hyperlinks within a PDF document.

I currently have an astak pocketpro, it supports bookmarks and table of contents in a PDF format. Of course the screen is only a five inch... =S

pdfs can have bookmarks on the Kindle. But they have to be created on the Kindle itself. Bookmarks created on the pdf before uploading to the Kindle are not recognized. At least not yet. But I expect pdf support to be further enhanced by firmware updates in the future.
