Device: Literati eReader, B&N Nook Simple Touch
I bought the Literati for $60 yesterday, on Marshalls. I was immensely happy – my first eReader, after all. I had not a single problem... Until this morning, when I tried to transfer a file to the reader via my Macbook, and the disk, apparently, got corrupted. So I could no longer write to it, only read and copy. I had to reformat the disk to regain write permissions to it, and now its size has been "reduced" from 252MB to 210MB.

My question is: can this "lost" space really not be recovered in any way? I mean, I read somewhere that this apparently lost space is not really lost, but just inaccessible. Do you know if there is any way to gain access to it once more? If there isn't, then I will have to assume that the only safe way to add books to my reader is through an SD card... Because I can't even eject the disk properly when I connect it to the Mac. In fact, I believe this is the source of the problem.

If I cannot solve this, then I better just give up on it and return it... I still have the receipt. Honestly, I feel very frustrated. I was so happy about finally having an eReader, and then this happened...
