Even when traveling, less than 1k books would be more than enough for the avid reader.
In the case of the NC, having a SD slot for extra storage is … well …, ok, but in the case of my SGT, I've used a total of 2 GB of the 16 GB I have; so that's kind of moot.

BUT being bootable from the SD card is a huge advantage. It makes it possible to use any number of custom ROMs, including HoneyComb without ever losing the original firmware. There are even folks at XDA-Developers selling SD cards with custom ROMs pre-installed making changing ROMs a simple matter of plugging in a different card.
