At the moment I have around 250 stories on Stanza. About 10 of them are long books and the rest are fanfic of varying sizes.

Honestly, if readMe would sort by tags as well as author/title/date I would update my phone in a heartbeat! So far, I really like readMe that much.

I didnt even try 1800. I sideloaded 400 initially and then found that although it seemed fast at first, it started falling over, not responding to taps etc, and it became really laggy when it did work. So I got rid of about half of those and still it wasnt crash hot. I think maybe its like the others, OK with a few books at a time but forget about carrying your entire library (I have over 4,000. Not happening)

This is a great little reader though, for maybe 100 books. I dont know what the magic number is and probably wont find out. I just caved in and have downgraded my 3GS to OS4.1. Syncing apps and music now, and will be so glad to get back into stanza.

[edit] It occurs to me, however, that there could be a relationship between the lag in readMe, and the generalised lag I have on iOS5 on my 3GS, in any case. I'll reinstall readMe and see how it goes under an older OS. If you have an iphone 4 or 4S, it might be OK.
