But the internal memory is about 443Megs . . . sounds like you can only hold
around 10 or 20 books on PDF not some 350 as claimed by Sony's advertising.
do you really need to hold so many books at once? really? it's easy to plug the reader into your computer and simply drag-and-drop the files to it in windows explorer. the reader just appears as a USB drive to it.

even if you can only hold 10 books at a time, do you really need more than 10 books in a single day...especially if they are comics?

even if you do, for some reason, here's what you can do (instead of just purchasing a reader with an SD card slot):
1) put all your books onto a USB stick / SD card (carry a usb card reader too).
2) carry the usb cable for your reader.
3) whenever you need to swap books, find any computer with 2 USB ports, plug both devices in, and exchange files in explorer (or whatever macs use).
