This is mostly to the folks at Astak, but others' comments are, of course, always welcome.

I have a 5" PEZ on order, and some day in the not TOO distant future (1-2 years at most) I imagine I'll get a larger reader (8-9") for use around home. One for ease of carrying, one for pleasure of reading.

Here's the thing: when that day comes, I can see myself wanting to switch back and forth between the two machines multiple times during the reading of a single (or multiple) books. What would be REALLY nice, is if the EZ-reader line could be set to store the various library/bookmark information on the SD card (where I would also keep most of the books). Then, when I'm going somewhere, I pop the SD card out of the Home machine and shove it into the Portable machine, and voila, I'm ready to read, right where I left off.

Or at least, provide an EASY method to 'sync' two machines (not the books themselves, but WHICH book you're reading and WHERE you are in that book).
