Very interesting. You certainly are quite the evangelist for the merits of pull-parsing. I read the reference docs, but I have to admit, I'm not the parsing method connoisseur I suppose I should be. I've always used the "whatever works" approach. To that end, I've used both DOM and SAX, and rolled-my-own in other instances. I'm still not positive I'd know when to say "this needs a pull-parser!" Nor can I claim to fully understand all the benefits and efficiencies of MTML, fortunately, I doubt I am alone in that. ;-)
FWIW - if anyone is interested, this document, linked from one of the links Mark provided, probably offers the clearest definitions of the various parsing types I've seen so far -
