It looks like the Connect Softeware won't compress rtf files, but the Reader's internal memory does the compression. That's a pity, IMO. The Reader's internal memory is 91mb, but it can contain at least 300mb rtf files. I really hope the connect software can do the compression also, that way a 1gb SD card would contain approximately 4gb rtf files as shown on the computer. Nobody would have to worry about a the compatibility of a 4gb SD card any more, since 1gb will be enough.
