It is one of the downsize i find about the sony before i purchase i was told that it held up to 8GB when i try to put 2.2 GB which is suposedly much less than advertize i am told by sony that it is too much & they don't have an answer to that.

My main concern with the cool-er was that cpu is twice the sony so is the ram. so i ask them if all would fit & have the device working at a fine speed. They could not tel me for sure but they said that the unit was made for high usage & that i should by it & return without charge in 14 days if it failed. I am not too found of returns i prefer asking advice from users first. I know that a lot of new ebooks are comming out from now till end of year (TXTR is also supposed to come out & has 532 cpu which much higher that 160-200 cpu from sony).

If none of the device on the market fit my needs than i will simply wait till there is one that fits. I already have 1 unit that doesnt do what i want no need to spend for another.

Also, using calibre with the new unit is one of my concerns because all my library is in there. I love the way it works, i love the conversion tools that is very powerful & i do not see myself starting with a new library software. All my titles are place has i wish & that took a lot of work. Already if i change unit i will probably have to convert a hole buch of files from lrf to epub (cool-er).

If ever anyone has a very high usage like i do & is using another device that works whell please let me know. The kindle DX look good too but has i am not in the states purchase of it is out of the question.

Thanks for all your comment so far you have been a great help...
