I have a 160gb iPod classic along with a couple of smaller Nanos - 8gb & 16gb. I carry all my music, audiobooks, Podcasts etc. The difference between that and carrying 10,000 books is that it doesn't bog down the iPod. It's easy to understand the desire to hear a certain song when in a particular mood and they're easy to find by album, artist, title. That's not the case with books on a reader.

I understand that some people want it. I just have no comprehension as to why. Unless someone is a speed reader, I can't fathom why someone would need to carry 10,000 books. Especially when all devices - anything - holds only a finite amount of product; songs, books, files etc. In my experience just about everything runs slower when it's near its maximum capacity. *shrugs*
