By way of comparison, I have several hundred megs of EPUB books loaded for my book reader app FBReader, and though FBReader does default the e-book folder to /sdcard/Books you can easily open it's settings and change it to anything you want.

I don't think I'm explaining the issue correctly, and without the device it's hard to describe. The app does let you move the data to the sd card. The problem is the way Vizio partitioned. It uses a virtual sd card, and apps assume that it is a real sd card. I can't blame the app developers for not anticipating this strange structure. Honestly, it is really confusing to even access the real sd card with a file browser. I tried apps2sd, and couldn't even find where the app was moved!
But, I don't want to put a negative spin on things. My dad absolutely loved the gift and has been playing with it non-stop since Christmas. He is a non-techie and thinks it is the best gift he has ever received. My mom just rolls her eyes and can't see the point! For the price it was well worth it, and there isn't too much competition in that range.
