I doubt that is the problem unless the ereaders I've tested have a lot more artificial intelligence than advertised. From my testing, the problem is that none of the ereaders that I've tested handle reading speeds over ~500WPM well. One of my test books was a self-generated omnibus of the first 13 1632 books so about 2,364,000 words. While it was not happy on some ereaders, on the ones where it worked, the reading speed was still highly inaccurate a million words in.
