Please! I'm dying in flat file hell here. I'd like books by category (or not) sorted within category by date or author. Categories collapsed until you select them.

I also would like a toggle between active books function, that toggles between, say, the last three to five books I've read.

A search function would be great, and for data input I'd even be happy with T9 or Multitap, just like on my cellphone.

I really should also be able to delete a book on my device or move it from the internal memory to the sd card or vice versa.

I need a Reader specific authoring tool, preferably one that will easily read an oeb project and convert it to a perfect lrf. Failing that, please please please expand the content of the bookstore. Granted, it's better than the Rocket eBook store was at inception, but there are so many book already released for ereader or ms-reader that are not available on connect, or, if they are, are priced far beyond the ereader or curent MMP price.

This product has had a great launch - if Sony intends to get behind it and keep people interested, they have GOT to deal with the content issues. The connect store is hollow, badly laid out and gives you a limited ability to search. And stuff is in the wrong place. It's like comparing a B&N or Borders with a small airport bookstore/newstand.

See, it doesn't take much to keep me happy. All I really want is Gemstar's 1150 OS, Sony's eInk screen and battery life, and Amazon's selection at remainder prices.
