Not all PDFs work. The Wii does not have enough RAM to handle any kind of PDF 
and the library that is used does not support all either. Especially such PDFs 
like the one above tend to fail because those are pure picture PDFs and use a 
lot of RAM. Text PDFs work better. I did some changes to the memory usage, 
maybe it will help in the next revs. Nothing else I can do about it.

I suspected the cause was the lack of RAM available.
Anyway, i suggest to do a check and show an error message to the user instead 
of crashing ungracefully.
