I agree, and I think it's ridiculous to say that a device can use large micro-SD cards if they can't handle the amount of files that the card can carry.

I feel like it's false advertising. If a device can't handle anything over what a 2gig card can carry, they shouldn't advertise that it can take a larger card. Or at least make it clear that anything over the size the device can handle is wasted space. And you certainly should be able to use the internal space without any problems with access or indexing.

Frankly, the "Carrying that many books is crazy" is beyond old. Any time someone wants to figure out what the limitations of their current device is, there are those who post that they shouldn't be doing so. Then we get into discussions about why some of us want to do so, just to get ignored, when the question wasn't 'should I' carry them, but 'can I on this device.

Questioning why someone wants to something is not helpful, and is just beating a dead horse. We want to, so that's all that matters. If you can't help with the specific problem on that specific device, then why even get in on the thread?

Because 'We Want To' should be enough reason to ask for technical help.
