To me, it's quite inconvenient.
About 30% of my ePUBs and PDFs in ADE don't stick to the naming conventions. Some have really strange phrases instead of author's names. Some have no author at all, others switch first and last name and so on. So, usually I check in ADE, how it will look like on the specific unit. Some units sort differently, so it doesn't matter. For others it's quite annoying ("didn't I have another James Patterson? Ah, some are under 'James Patterson', others under 'Patterson, James' and another one under 'gkrpepa' and so on").
For Sony 505 and 700 I check the respective books in ADE and copy to the correct destination. On Sony, I use the memory stick for .lrx, the SD card for .epub and .pdf and so on.
For the Opus, it's way more inconvenient:
- Copy within ADE to the internal memory.
- I can't copy directly from internal memory to Micro SD card. When using 8GB, it's quite unstable and very often (80% of the time) doesn't show at all in Windows explorer.
- So I have to eject the SD card, put it into an adapter and move the files within Windows explorer.
- Then I re-insert the card into Opus.
Of course it's not complicated. But it's far from "state of the art", either.
Why do they praise having a Micro SD card, mainly focus on ADE and then you can't use the card within ADE?
