Hi,

I have a PRS-900 Sony Daily Edition and I've recently run into what seems to be a recurring issue. I have a lot of manga that I converted with Calibre into EPUB format, and while the book will load and begin displaying the pages, after awhile it will start to display blank pages instead of manga images.

At this point I will back out of the book and I'll get an error message stating that there was a read error with the memory/SD card the manga was loaded on and that my reading details could not be saved. If I then perform a shutdown and restart, I can read the book from the beginning, but eventually the problem will surface again.

I tried this in PDF format as well thinking it was the EPUB having difficulty with the large file sizes, but the problem is still occuring. It does not seem to affect any text books, so is there something with the Calibre software that could be causing this, or is Sony's software locking up reading these?

Any assistance is appreciated.
