There are gifs that show the process.
I don't know if I would like to read everything that fast, though I personally like the fact that your eyes wouldn't have to constantly bounce left to right, which I think in some cases is a cause for headaches.
Like my position on e-readers, some books you are glad to read fast and loose, while for others you want a nice hardcover, fine typography and the whole experience.
