Hello,

I've read that the PRS-505 can be used as a standard USB Mass Storage.

That's cool because it means that it can be used without any specific software.

I just like to know the way browsing the books catalog.

I mean : If I put some ebooks (HTML and/or LRF formats) into a PRS-505 using it as an USB mass storage, how the books catalog is shown ?

Is it a basic file browsing ? Or does the Sony Reader scan the newly added files and then generates a books catalog, allowing to browse the database by title, author, lang, etc. ?

Thank you for any informations about that...
