I have about 1000 ebooks on my PRS-505 and I can't afford to add anymore to the external or internal card because the reader takes forever to restart. right now at 1000 ebooks it takes about 30-45 mintues to reload if the device restarts. After adding new titles it takes 10-15 minutes to index the new ebooks.

I've heard after 2000 ebooks the device becomes even slower...
