I'm considering an e-book reader for my birthday and had a couple of questions I can't seem to find the answer to:

1. I know the 700 has slots for both SD and Memory Stick - Can it use both simultaneously?

2. Any experiences with what sizes work? Sony shows/recommends the 8 and 16 gb memory sticks and the specs on some sites mention SD cards up to 32 gb, but in the early reviews and release info it talks about capacity changes from the 2 gb limit of the 505 to 8 gb on the 700? (Early firmware limit?

3. Anyone have experience using multiple cards for different libraries? Say one for personal and one for technical?

The memory card and DRM issues turned me off on the Kindle, but I can't find much reference (practical) to answer these questions.

Thanks!
