My 505 finally arrived yesterday, and I'm really impressed with it - a top bit of kit; all of the guys in the office were loving the screen!

Anyway... over the past week or two I've been preparing some books using Book Designer, and then importing into libprs500 to keep track of them, edit meta data etc, and then be able to upload them.

One niggle I've got is that a lot of the books are collections, or very long, so the initial opening on the device itself can take a long time. A version of Lord of the Rings took nearly half an hour to finish the formatting on the device itself.

What is the easiest way to get the LRF's out of libprs500 and into Ebook Library? I have tried the 'save to disk' option of libprs500, but it sometimes errors out. Will sending them to the SD card using libprs500, browsing the SD card and then importing into Ebook Library work?

What do other people do?
