For anyone who is interested, I just bought a 128 GB microSD on a hunch (Samsung EVO+ from Amazon) thinking that if the InkPad can use a 64 GB card, then it can probably use a 128 GB one too. The reason is that between 32 and 64 GB the entire hardware protocol changes, so the OS device driver and maybe the controller chip need to be upgraded, while 64 and 128 GB only differ by a couple bits.
Indeed it works!
Out of the box the card comes formatted in ExFAT, which the PocketBook, being a Linux device, can't read. (for legal reasons. Shame on you, Microsoft, shame on you!) So I just used the SD card adapter to format it as FAT32 and bingo!
I bought the InkPad to read manga, which take up a lot of space, so I'll post an update as soon as I can confirm that I can use the full 128 GB.
I'll wager they cannot claim to support SD cards larger than 32 GB because they would need to buy some kind of certification from the SD card consortium.
