Very fast in comparison to document reader. But..Does not show the new names of renamed files made by means of the filemanager...

Would be awesome if there was a word search function. Also would be great if you could read the menu. Its very small indecipherable. If trying to get to the end of a 1000 page document you need to turn every page.
