I am not familiar with Android and Apps in general. Is it necessary to root the T62 in order to install the Apps mentioned above? Can I get them from the GoodReader Eink App Store App? Would I just use WiFi to download apps from the GoodReader store app?
Could I also just download an Android app to my notebook PC and then use the USB cable to transfer it to the T62?
I apologize if these are stupid questions. Like I mentioned, I have never used a tablet or Android device so I am totally unfamiliar with Apps in general.

...I think basic setup is easy, though I believe there are still more things to do than with a Kindle. At a bare minimum, you would need to turn on the wifi, and then either sideload your books or load the Kindle app (which requires getting the Google play store on the device or sideloading the app).

Thank you, that is good to know. Does the T62 work with a typical folder structure? I use Calibre on my PC. Is there some way to use it (or a special Android version) to organize my books on this eReader?
How is music organized? Nested folders?
I would ideally like to separate my music MP3s and my anti-insomnia mediation recordings into two separate folders, and then further organize those folders into subfolders. Would that work?
Like I mentioned before, I would have each night time meditation recording in its own separate folder so that, hopefully, I can click on it to play... and when it's finished it will just go idle and not play any of the other files. (So it doesn't keep playing all night.) That is how my old media player worked.
Can anyone confirm that audio files can be set up like this?
Also, would anyone be willing to put a single mp3 in a folder and see if the built-in audio player will play it and then go idle? I would really love to know if that will work the way I have been anticipating.

Overall it's a good and powerful device and I've been happy with it.

Thanks for mentioning this. If I get the T62, I doubt I will root it any time soon... so hopefully I can get whatever basic apps I need from this source.
Thanks again to everyone here for being so helpful.
Oops, I meant to ask about covers for this device. I really would prefer a cover that has a built in stand. I couldn't find any that specifically mention the T62. I am wondering if this Kindle cover will fit okay.

It looks like it probably wouldn't cover any of the buttons, and I'm hoping it is flexible enough to fit. Does anyone have a Kindle to compare the size of the T62?
