Dear Robetb.
Thank you for sharing information with us.
Some of people will be angry, some will grumble, others will accuse you of unspeakable things, but it is only because there is a high level of anticipation. The worst thing that could happen is that people would not care ..

Do not worry.
The customers will do things even the most pessimistic engineer did not imagine in his worst dream, and some computer literate Luddite will make it crash in 5 minutes

. Or a genius hacker will think of some very clever thing to do ...
I hope you did try loading the full capacity of memory card with many thousands books. Engineers at Sony did not try this and as a result the Reader chokes (or at least becomes VERY slowly responding and sluggish) if you load it up with as little as several hundred e-books.
I hope you did try to load badly formatted, damaged or othervise abnormal files. Also try "funny" filenames - in other character sets (for example generated on russian version of windows), too long, too deep in nested subdirectories, containing illegal characters.
Please send me Private Message if you are interested in "a few" such files.
