Ha!
Sony reader chokes on MUCH less than 16GB of books. It will choke on less than a thousand books. It maintains a database and it needs to update it when you insert memory card with books. You insert memory card with several thousand rtf books and the reader would need several HOURS to go through the card if it did not choke somewhere around book 900.

The only way to use up the 16GB is to load the reader up with some really huge manga books and some enormously large mp3 files (1 mp3 per entire original CD with audiobook)

Can you imagine browsing through 1600 pages with the list of books?
Remember the Reader does not support any sensible book organization scheme, like those newfangled things called Folders that appeared on latest versions of the operating systems.

16GB
Sigh!
