I could see a wide view being viable with cover art / metadata with ratings/author/publisher/isbn/tags/description - most ebooks have these fields. Also advanced search features would be useful. But again, using such a layout would take its toll on battery life, quite quickly.. Instead of crawling along at a 50-100mhz, it would blaze at the full 500 or so as it struggles to index/organize all of that crap. It would also require more page turns to display fewer books =X

I do agree that more options = better, and they should spend some goddamn time on the GUI/software. It's kind of sad that hackers have released more features than the dev team...
