I don't know how I managed, but I killed two within 9 months. The first would not be seen by the computer, and I got USB device error messages. I could load from the SD card and it would charge, but it could not sync. The second Jetbook started freezing my windows when I synced, but could be seen. When I tried to upgrade the firmware, it would not and on running the diagnostics, had checksum errors. Ectaco was wonderful both times. I have no idea what happened to the Jetbooks or why. I'm on my third now and am only loading it from the SD card only. The flashdrive will remain untouched and uncorrupted by me and my books..We'll see how long it lasts. I truly love the little thing.
By the way, both the Jetbook and the Kindle come with nice highquality wall chargers and Kindle does not take a SD card so all you will need with Jetbook is an inexpensive SD card and the 5.00 lighted Sony case from Woot is perfect; Unfortunately, my eyes cannnot deal with the glare from an external light so mine won't get much use. I have a backlit Augen I read from at night and it's operation and quirks reminds me so much of Jetbook, I wonder if they are not related..
