I shouldn't be here as we are eating internet like candy.

On my Kobo - before it went berserk and needed a reformat - I had 1359 ebooks. I hadn't read all of them, probably wouldn't read all of them, they are only about a 10th of what I have in eformat, but I was rarely with out something to read. Some I would read repeatedly, some I swore I would get to but never did, some I would start and not finish. The wonderful about the theory of using a micro sd card on a reader is the idea of almost limitless space - I say "theory" as after about 1200 ebook it started to have problems coping and it would lag and not respond. The idea went that I could have as many ebooks as the card would hold, so I wouldn't have to delete stuff or constantly be near my computer to add things. A series has 21 books? No problem as I could put all 21 on the card and read them as I wanted to.

*I* have a "hoarder" mentality when it comes to my books. I love the idea of being able to carry around 1350 ebooks wherever I go, always having SOMETHING to read. I like romance novels (I'm a girl, damn it), so I had 600 or so romance novels on the card because I never knew what I wanted to read. Or I'd go from one to the next without stopping.

I have to get out of that habit, but it's hard. That's why the internal stroage is an issue, in fact both my husband and a friend of mine questioned whether or not I could live with it.
