I see there is a new version of software rolling out, but it does not have the most important feature, folders!

I admit I am a pretty anal person (after all, I am a tax lawyer) but this is getting ridiculous. Although all my books were formatted correctly (I thought), about half were sorting by author's first name. I wouldn't care so much if I could sort everything into folders, but since alphabetizing is the only way to currently sort, it was driving me crazy. So, I stayed up all night

using mobi2mobi to get everything corrected. I have 200 books, so it did take a little time.

Now, I am fooling around with 3 books that didn't convert correctly. I don't mind that, because it isn't as mindless as changing author format. What a waste of time. Except for this, I love my kindle.

I know, rant, rant, rant.
