I honestly believe that Kovid is virtually singlehandedly responsible for the surge in popularity for ereaders thanks to his hard work with Calibre. You will never think of deep sixing your reader again.
Amen. As I was reading your initial posts, I thought 'just install calibre, let it catalog your books, wipe out the 300 and start over.'

Save yourself the heartache and headaches, mate and just bin Sony. They make brilliant hardware, but crap software.
