Reading PDFs speeds up considerably if you turn images off in the preferences. Admittedly, this takes away half the point of PDFs, but it at least makes the text readable. I think the lousy PDF reader is one of the biggest flaws of the 770 -- why include it at all if it's so bad?

You can create an account at Streamload for example and upload your file. I tested it with the Nokia Doom movie and it seem to work:

Ok, I have put the video on streamload.com and here's a link:
<bad download URL deleted>
Let me know if it doesn't work for any reason. Streamload doesn't let you 'host' a file for downloading if you are a free user, so I won't be surprised if that URL changes at some point.
Note that the video was made on a 256kbs internet link, so consider that when thinking about the page rendering time. Flash disabled, week 51 software.

Maybe http://www.putfile.com is a better option? Or you can send the file to me using MSN (I send you a PM with the address) , I can place it on my server. Thanx!

Hmmmm... the loading bar isn't all the way to the right! Foul! (Just kidding; I said it took about 15 seconds for it to load on my 770 too.)
But what is it with you people? Am I the only 770 owner who goes to Full Screen mode?

you can add my name to the long list of people who can load the page.
my problem with boardgamegeek was that the unit was regularly locking up/rebooting when i would open it. since i've added swap it doesn't reboot any more, but it still locks up when i actually try to use the site (clicking through links, scrolling, etc).
the big speed issue was with pdfs, not web site rendering.

Have you tried a PDF -> HTML converter? or even PDF -> TXT?
