I get twitchy, but so far have been disappointed with all the problems I'm having on various eink devices and micrSD cards. I may be able to get all my books on a 16 gig card, but the software on them just isn't able to handle the numbers. I've got one that has all my books and seems to do well most of the time, but even it will 'forget' the card exists from time to time. The only one so far that has my full stash and seem to not mind is the iPad. But I don't like reading on it.
Years ago, I once had to grab my newborn and his diaper bag and leave our apartment after another apartment caught fire. I couldn't get back into our apartment for seven days. So I'd like to be able to grab the one device with all my books, in case I never get back in. (Yes, I do have backups! Lol In a media safe, but haven't seen any on-line storage places I can feel I can trust.)
I also once had to get rid of my library, for space/weight limits on a military move, and spent three years in Japan with a very sad base library, a book store with very limited selection, and me beating my head on the wall for three years because none of my relatives would send me books. It was awful.
I just never want to do without again, so if I can find a way to carry them all, I will.
