Before I did a 'hard' memory re-format and cleared everything I had on board, I had 173 books stored. The hitch started when I downloaded another two whopping tomes from Ken Follet, which some more experienced users here said might have been a kinda last straw. Don't really know how true that is -- because some readers seem to store hundreds or even thousands of titles -- but I've had not a single hitch since I started to use a wall changer (which, granted makes a huge difference in itself) and decided to keep my 'portable' library to between a dozen and two dozen, on the tried-and-tested better-safe-than-sorry principle. Mind you, I'm always within easy reach of the bigger machines were my permanent library is kept ready to download or re-download anything I need; I do appreciate that toting a heck of a lot of material in a reader may be necessary for some users who might be away from their home-base libraries for long periods of time; especially those who may need volumed of various reference books.
