I win (so far), currently at 1747. Using 929MB of 1110MB internal memory.

Although 100 are the free included ones and theres also the Kobo user guide so really it's really 1646. Basically if I think I might read a specific book sometime, eventually, I will just load everything by that author on. So I have things like every Asimov, Philip K Dick, William Gibson, Bruce Sterling, etc...

I was considering putting the entire sffebooks torrent onto an sd card (it's probably well over 20k books by now), but it would take way to long to convert and process them all.

Takes quite a while for the Kobo to 'process' the ones I have already. Also would like some way to search the collection on the Kobo.

I only got this thing 2 days ago as well, so far I have probably spent more time loading stuff on than reading but I have gotten the process down fairly well now and because their all in a Calibre library I can factory reset the device and just reupload.

I did have a few problems with that many books, I found one particular epub that caused the 'processing' screen to crash and reboot the Kobo, and there where also a few books that seemed to refuse to show up but they seem to be fine now.
