Hi, my device seems to have difficulty reading from the SD card.

After formatting the SD card and transfer in the pdf, Sony can load the file. However, after a while for no reasons at all, it stops working, and displays "cannot display the file" or something like that, then all the directories (folders) in the SD card shows an empty list, though when opened in a computer, the files are all still there and completely readable. This essentially renders the SD card extension unusable since it's so unstable. Does anyone have the similar problem?

Also, Sony seems to have problem reading some pdf's. These are just regular files with no protection DRM whatsoever, and with regular names. I opened them on the computer just fine. Seems like pdf reading is a hit and miss and has to be tested on an individual basis. Or am I missing something here?

Thanks guys for the answers!
