Which kind of support do other e-readers provide for 'grouping' documents on the e-reader itself?
I have several series of book on my DR800S with DR1000 uds support. When I use author view on my DR800S the upload order is preseved If I have each series in its own directory. That means if I have books by Author A and make a folder Author A and a subfolder Series B on my DR800, upload the books of the series in order to folder Series B and reindex then the books of the series appear together in order rather that alphabetilcally by title.

Example

title of file "sample book first in series" (uploaded first)
title of file "a second sample book in series" (uploaded second)

Alphabetically the second one should display first as the title starts with "a". On my DR800 the don't the book starting "sample" is displayed first. Hope this helps
