For the devices that do have folders, is navigation a simple matter of using up and down buttons plus an enter command? Is there a limit to how many folders it is practical to use?

And do ebooks in a folder just appear with their filename or is there some process of applying author and title information to them?
eBooks don't appear with their filename, but with the respective metadata.
Very often, even with legally purchased books, you'll find strange things like "24/7" for author's name. Sorting by author's name would be helpful, but without manipulations to the originals, it isn't working for at least 1/3 of all titles.
You can change the metadata though.
