Hi Kumar,

Thanks for the suggestions.  If you want to help with development, we could
use help developing xbook / pdf viewing so that runs quickly on the
laptops.  Don Hopkins has also been looking into this, and thinking about a
feature wishlist for an ideal viewer.  Please add to the ideas here:

You might send these kinds of notes to sugar at laptop.org as well, where there
is a discussion underway about how to improve the bookreading experience.
