Re: Frustrating PDF, ebook, websurfing thoughts with N810
 

Well thats not entirely the issue. It just so happens that most of my ebooks are in chm format and everytime i extract the HTML files from the CHM i lose the TOC which in essence makes it pointless as I have said before they are all textbooks. Most of which have images of diseases and the such.

Maybe in the end i'm asking too much out of the tablet. I dont really mind waiting for it to load or even if i need a massive swap space as long as it is readable and relatively smooth once its open.

yup...if you have Python installed. And usually most folks do since there are so many Python apps for ITOS.

FYI, it takes a tad longer to do the conversion on the tablet. Recently a 900k book took somewhere around 2-3 minutes on my N800. I did not time it nor did I realize when it actually finished. But compared to doing the conversion on my C2D laptop, which took a handful of seconds, it seemed like an eternity. But in reality it was not bad time wise at all.

Setsai, it could have been me writing that post a few years ago.

I got an ipod touch 2nd gen (JB) and chucked all my pdf and chm files
as they were and they load great with mutitouch as a bonus. Next to no lag when scrolling too.

The out of memory message on my n810 used to make me pull my hair.

Theres a pdf annotater too but its not a patch on xournal.

I can vouch for converting pdf to mobi 'images'. They load quick even on my nokia phones but without TOC.
