Now, I might enjoy having an eBookwise device, but would really like for them to get off of the Smart Media option and move to SD cards.

By the way, DixieGal -- your 8M card is on the way to you. I took it to the Post Office right after lunch and mailed it along with 6 packages of books to various of my book swapping friends.
Actually it would be much easier for them to move to XD cards as they are electrically the same and it would only need a new connector.
