That really is the main thing that puts me off using my iPod Touch as an eBook reader - the fact that you have to jump through so many hoops to get content on to the device. I'm afraid that life is just too short as far as I'm concerned

. Not being able to simply copy files to it strikes me as just crazy. Even more so when you consider the fact that all earlier iPods could be mounted as a disk - they specifically
removed that functionality from the Touch. Madness!
