Brazos_Jack - congrats! i found booksonboard to have wonderful customer service. i'm very glad i got my cybook through them. i think you'll be much happier if you buy a tiny mp3 player like the sansa clip (i love mine!) and use the cybook for reading. i love my cybook - best $400 we've spent in ages! - but i prefer not to drain the battery, and anyway the clip sounds better.

of course, i also prefer the clip to my phone for the same reasons where many other people prefer to play their tunes in their phone...

that

I ordered a Cybook from BooksOnBoard in Austin, Texas last night. They’ll send it to my sister in East Texas and she’ll meet me in Philly in about a week and a half.

I checked all the SD cards I use with my camera and all were FAT, not FAT32. They also had some default subdirectory folders that my camera creates when you insert a new card and turn it on. I reformatted one to FAT32 and tried it in the camera. It worked fine. The camera did not try to reformat it but did recreate the subfolders. So I have now reformatted all my SD cards to FAT32. I have set up folders on my PC with the folder names that were specified as required by the Cybook in another thread and am filling them with .prc book files, .mp3 music files, and jpg picture files. When finished, I'll transfer the full folders to an SD card.

So I should be good to go as soon as I get the Cybook and get it charged.
