Slow Reading on B&N eReader?

slow eReader application

Has the nook slowness caught up to the iPhone reader application (B&N Reader)? Take a look at this screen - Waiting for page ....

If you've used the B&N Reader program you've seen this screen.  It happens anytime you click on a table of contents link or change the font. In this case I changed the font and it took my phone almost 2 minutes to complete this operation. The Kindle application instantly re-sized my font and follows document links flawlessly.

Problem with the ePub format? The software? Did the Fictionwise team (that wrote this eReader app) code the software for the nook? Curious minds want to know!

B&N has to make this stuff "just work" before they go down as the Microsoft of eReader platforms!
