I looked in the FAQ, and still can't find any help, even now using the word 'copy'. I think I tried copying the whole folder across using Windows last time but as it changed the Date Modified info it...

It was worth a try. I didn't realise I'd've kept the bookmarks. Now I've started again using calibre to transfer in batches - years first (since 2009) and then months in 2016, to have some date order...

The copying and pasting the contents of the "/documents" folder didn't work. The date modified Windows field seemed to be preserved, but the RECENT library listing on the Oasis didn't keep the order.

Aliexpress have a lot of cases for the Voyage, but not as many as it looks like as they have different entries for each supplier rather than each case. Cheap too.

My pre-ordered Voyage (I'm in the UK so I have weeks to wait yet) has turned up on the list of my devices online already. Is this usual? Maybe a sign of early delivery?!
