I have a 512 Mb Sony MS Pro Duo (it came with my Cybershot DSC T-5) and a 256 Mb MMC card (unused right now).
Now, I don't have the slightest idea whether either of them will work with the eReader. There are many different types of MS cards, and sometimes SD-capable devices can also read MMC. For instance, my previous camera supported both SD and MMC, and card readers offer the same slot for both formats.
Moreover, some devices have problems with cards over 512 Mb. Has Sony ever said what's the maximum capacity for cards in this device?

I was planning to use cards as backup storage-only. For instance, I first transfer ebooks to the card, and then copy them to the internal memory. That's if the device software lets me, of course. That way I expect to save on loading times and battery.

So many questions! So many details to know about the device! Release it already, Sony!
