Or worse, you might have to buy a new one because you dropped it and the screen broke!

If that's what others want, enjoy, but I was just poking a little bit of fun at the idea.

Well, I don't have 4000+ ebooks, but I am one of those that wants to keep all her books on her reader. Simply because I never know what I want to read next (I might not even have finished my current book ...)
My average epub (all contain an embedded font, simply because I usually can't stand the ones that are generally included with the various ereaders) is between 500Kb and 1Mb. The mobi versions are slightly smaller (about 250Kb). Now, let's play dumb and say that 1Mb = 1000Kb. That means I could not even store 4000+ books on 2Gb! But
only about 2500....
Not sure I could live with that
