I went for the 32GB SDHC card as a tech hedge: I'm sure it will be handy in some future gadget, possibly the upcoming Kobo LXXIX model :-)

But consider anyway that with ebooks on b&w readers we have gone back to the good old days when 64K was big. Look how many of the public domain freebies are way under 1MB, with even wireless transfer times a blink of the eye. Now consider how wasteful modern programs and data files are and how our little eInk devices will probably go bigger with color, touchscreen, etc. and the publishers will meet the demand with a color, interactive Pride & Prejudice that takes up 8MB...
