I may consider replacing the Kindle Touch with the Glo. It only has half the memory, but it has an SD card slot.

(Same logic applies to every other eReader, including the Kindle Paperwhite which has (shudder) a measly 1.5 GB and about a year's worth of books.)
Umm, when you say "the way it works with calibre" does the Kobo have some kind of advantage over other eReaders that I should know about?
