I am all for making the animations such that they help users get a
better experience.
But fbreader already works pretty well for my needs. I am not
convinced that page
turning is more then a gimmick.

The real bonus points for reading electronic documents is to make evince be
small screen aware and make it be able understand page layout so that it focuses
away whitespace (like margins). Bonus points if it understands two and
three column
layouts as well. PDF reading on small devices is the sux0rs.
